Man: They have "AA" "AAA", and "AAAA," but no "A" batteries. Why are there no "A" batteries? Woman: Looking up at a billion stars, that is the question you ponder? Man: Yup, it just doesn't make any sense. Woman: That makes two of you.

A & B batteries weren’t a size, but a type of battery, used to supply power to tube radios.And the correct designation for AA, AAA, C, D, etc. are cells, not batteries. A battery is a bank of two or more single cells. Thus a 9 Volt is a battery, as internally it is comprised of six individual 1.5 Volt cells. Likewise a typical car battery is comprised of six 2 Volt Cells.There are many other letter-named sizes of cell, including F, which is quite common but seldom sold in individual quantities. You’ll generally find them inside 6 Volt lantern batteries and other large portable batteries.
