In the US, this battery is known as a 9-volt. I'd never heard or read the term "PP3" before reading this article. Are we sure this isn't a UK regionalism? |

* "PP3" is the US term for an 9 volt battery. The [[International Electrotechnical Commission]] refers to it as 6LR61 and [[ANSI]] refers to it as 1604A. Where "PP3" comes from, I don't know. I know there are "PP6" sizes as well. [[User:Snafflekid|Snafflekid]] 23:20, 3 May 2007 (UTC) |

Tongue problems?
For factual purposes only, do you think the article should mention how, in real life and in popular culture, the nine-volt battery is also used as a prank to shock one's tongue? It makes sense to me. -dogman15 03:58, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
