Hi Don I replied to this message on the other list & so did 1 other person. Not sure why you didn't see the messages.
Anyway... I tested reading my Aa & AAA batteries with the KNFB & camfind apps. Both apps were able to identify the brand name of the battery, battery size & warning info. It was a bit harder to get the info from the AAA battery because the battery is small. I would assume that you could use Be My Eyes or even Facetime to obtain the info from the batteries being that you will have sighted assistance. The writing on AA & AAA batteries is parallel to the seam. The brand name & size is located slightly away from the overlapping seam. Being that cell batteries are a metallic silver color (shiney) & the size is etched into the battery it may be harder for an app to identify.
