About Eveready
Eveready got its start in the early 1900s, when the American Eveready Company (developer of the original flashlight) partnered with the National Carbon Company (developer of the first D-sized dry cell battery). In 1907, Eveready announced a new battery -- the AA size -- and introduced several styles of compact vest lights using this new battery. 1911 saw the development of the AAA battery, the first nine-volt battery followed in 1956, and the first alkaline battery was brought to market in 1957. The company later developed a line of rugged personal lighting devices, as well, and people have been using Eveready batteries to power their devices ever since.
