@kwayk42 that little factoid about 9V batteries (usually) being nothing more than six AAAA batteries in a trench coat will never not be mind blowing to me.

@astrid But, both A and AAAA are also battery sizes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_battery_sizes

@astrid is there any easy way to tell which ones are or aren't without ripping apart a 9V battery?

I actually didn't even know AAAA batteries existed before I learned about this. I found an old 9V and tore into it as soon as I read about it and that one was indeed made from 6 AAAA batteries.

@kwayk42 @astrid A is of course a battery size too, albeit a more uncommon one. Any joke involving DNS is still funny!

@jalager OK, I had no idea the single A battery was a thing.

Also, it's really funny that this battery is apparently so uncommon that they didn't have an actual photo to use on the Wikipedia page for battery sizes so they just drew a 2D representation of it on a piece of graph paper.
