I remember a long time ago my parents taking me to buy an AB battery pack for a portable radio I had won in a singing contest. The little mom and pop radio store kept the batteries in a refrigerator. The man said to let it warm up before using it. Those were surely zink carbon. That must have been at least a couple of hundred years ago.
