FAQs
What does SP 341 SR714SW mean?
SP 341 is the manufacturer's (Renata) model number, while SR714SW is the international standard designation for this specific type and size of silver-oxide watch battery.
How long do these batteries typically last?
Due to their higher silver content, these batteries offer up to a 60% increase in life compared to standard batteries, meaning they last significantly longer, often more than two years in typical watch applications.
Are these batteries rechargeable?
No, the RENATA SP 341 are non-rechargeable silver-oxide batteries designed for single use.
Can I use these in devices other than watches?
While primarily designed for watches, they can be used in any small electronic device that requires a 1.55V silver-oxide coin cell of the SR714SW size. Always check your device's specifications.
How should I store unused batteries?
Store them in their original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, until ready for use.
What is the benefit of the 'higher silver content'?
A higher silver content allows for a more stable voltage output and a greater overall energy capacity, resulting in a longer battery life and more consistent performance for your device.
Where are Renata batteries manufactured?
Renata is a world-class leader in coin cells with manufacturing locations including Switzerland and contract manufacturers in Asia.
Troubleshooting
Watch not working after battery replacement
Ensure the new battery is inserted with the correct polarity (+/-). Check that the battery contacts inside the watch are clean and making proper contact. Verify that the replacement battery is indeed the correct model (SP 341 / SR714SW).
Short battery life
Confirm that the battery is the correct type for the device (e.g., not a lower-capacity alternative). Ensure the device is not draining the battery through continuous operation of power-hungry features (like continuous backlight use on some digital watches).
Device functions erratically
A low or failing battery can cause erratic behavior. Replace the battery with a fresh RENATA SP 341. Ensure the battery compartment is clean and free of corrosion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These batteries are designed for direct replacement. Ensure the device is powered off before opening and removing the old battery. Handle the new battery by its edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin, which can affect performance. Insert the new battery with the correct polarity as indicated in the device's manual.
Compatibility:
The RENATA SP 341 battery is equivalent to the SR714SW standard. It is commonly used in a wide range of quartz watches from various brands. Always verify your device's manual or the existing battery's model number to confirm compatibility before purchase. While primarily for watches, they can be used in other small electronics that require a 1.55V silver-oxide coin cell of this specific size (7.9mm diameter, 1.4mm height).
Care:
- Store unused batteries in their original packaging in a cool, dry place.
- Keep batteries away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
- Dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations.
