Note *1: Consumption in 2003 and 2004 assumed equal to consumption in 2002 with no further investigation. This may likely be a
slight overestimation as trends exhibit a declining tendency. *2: The term "replacement cells" here refers exclusively to sales of
individual NiCd cells to end consumers, and as such only constitute a part of the sale of individual NiCd cells (a fixed term used by
battery traders referring to the fact that these rechargeable batteries replaces primary batteries on the consumer market). *3: From
1994, these products are covered under "other household and care products".
