Panasonic NCR18500A Lithium Ion 2040mAh High Capacity Cylindrical Battery
Important Information Regarding Rechargeable Lithium Cells – LITHIUM ION (LiIon) & LITHIUM IRON PHOSPHATE (LiFePO4)
Single unprotected cells are available to recognised customers. Please read this precautions sheet from Panasonic.
PLEASE NOTE: All lithium rechargeable cells/packs supplied by Simpower without a Protection Circuit Module (PCM) will require a duly signed Simpower Product Indemnity Waiver (PIW) form. Please click here to download the Simpower Product Indemnity Waiver Form.
Do not attempt to charge these batteries using chargers for nickel based batteries or any charger not specifically designed for rechargeable lithium technology.
This cell is manufactured for use in a battery pack assembly. It is not intended for use without a protection circuit. For equipment designed to use individual cells a protection circuit can be incorporated. Simpower’s current range of protected lithium ion cells can be viewed on this page.
Lithium ion cells can be assembled into single or multi-cell battery packs by authorised pack assembly centres such as our company that have been approved for safety circuit assembly and Lithium Ion pack design.
For information on the safety circuits, more commonly know as a protection circuit module (PCM) please click here.
Simpower can also provide advice and components for intelligent Battery Management System’s (BMS) additional to or incorporating PCM’s. It’s recommended that battery packs especially those featuring complex series/parallel cell assemblies incorporate a BMS in their construction. For further information please consult our sales engineering staff. For pack design enquiries please contact us with your requirements.
