Important Compatibility Note:
- Verify that your equipment specifically requires a C-size 1.2V nickel-cadmium rechargeable battery before installation.
- DIMENSIONS: The standard C-size battery format measures approximately 26.2mm in diameter and 50.0mm in length. Actual dimensions may vary depending on the manufacturer and terminal construction.
- TERMINAL CONFIGURATION: C-size NiCd batteries may be manufactured with raised button-top terminals, flat-top terminals, or factory-attached solder tabs. Confirm the exact terminal style required by your equipment.
- Flat-top and tabbed C-size NiCd cells are commonly used in custom battery packs and should not be assumed to fit standard consumer C-size battery compartments.
- NiCd batteries have a nominal voltage of 1.2V, while standard C-size alkaline batteries have a nominal voltage of 1.5V. These batteries are not automatically interchangeable in all equipment.
- Do not confuse this 1.2V NiCd battery with C-size NiMH, lithium-ion, or other battery chemistries. Confirm compatibility with the equipment and charging system before substitution.
- Use only a charger specifically designed for NiCd batteries and compatible with the battery's size, capacity, and charging requirements.
- Do not charge this battery using a charger intended exclusively for lithium-ion, LiFePO4, lead-acid, or other incompatible battery chemistries.
- Some chargers support both NiCd and NiMH batteries, but compatibility must be confirmed in the charger's specifications.
- For a 3500mAh battery, a 0.1C current corresponds to approximately 350mA. This is a general charging-rate reference and does not replace the specific manufacturer's charging instructions.
- Do not use fast charging unless specifically permitted by the battery manufacturer and supported by the charger.
- When replacing cells in an existing battery pack, confirm the original chemistry, voltage, capacity, dimensions, terminal arrangement, and charging system compatibility.
- Do not mix NiCd batteries with NiMH, alkaline, lithium, or other battery chemistries in the same device or battery pack.
- When using multiple batteries together, use matched cells of the same chemistry, similar capacity, age, and state of charge.
- Always observe the positive (+) and negative (-) polarity markings during installation.
- Do not short-circuit, crush, puncture, disassemble, overheat, or expose the battery to fire.
- Do not use batteries that are leaking, damaged, swollen, or showing signs of excessive heat.
- Nickel-cadmium batteries contain cadmium, a toxic heavy metal, and must be handled and disposed of responsibly.
- Keep batteries away from children and pets.
- Recycle spent NiCd batteries through an approved rechargeable battery recycling program. Do not dispose of them in household trash.
