I am  building a radio control remote for a camera requiring a 5Volt 13 m/a
supply

and using  4 x AAA

Are any smaller batteries available to keep the size and weight down

Any Help appreciated

Many Thanks

You could use button cells.

Lithium is the way to go for light.  If you can make the system go on
4V, you may get by with one lithium cell.

If you've got a radio receiver, why not just steal power from that?

With the lower the volts and m/a the longer life  I am trying to compromise

between this and working range

Many thanks for your help
