Product Specifications
The CR123 MaxPowerCell 3V Lithium Battery provides dependable, non-rechargeable power for compatible electronic equipment requiring a CR123 or CR123A primary lithium battery. Manufactured under the MaxPowerCell brand, this battery features primary lithium manganese dioxide (Li-MnO2) chemistry and delivers a nominal voltage of 3.0 volts. Its compact cylindrical design makes it suitable for compatible digital cameras, photographic equipment, flashlights, security sensors, alarm components, and other portable electronic devices designed to operate with 3V CR123 lithium batteries.
Designed in the standard CR123 cylindrical battery format, the MaxPowerCell lithium battery measures 34.5 × 17.0 mm (1.36 × 0.67 in), length × diameter. The battery features a raised button-top positive terminal and a flat negative terminal for proper electrical contact in compatible battery compartments. Its primary lithium manganese dioxide chemistry provides a ready-to-use power source without requiring charging. The compact CR123 format is commonly used in compatible photographic equipment, portable lighting, security devices, and electronic instruments requiring this specific battery size and voltage.
The MaxPowerCell CR123 3V Lithium Battery is a primary, non-rechargeable battery and must never be placed in a battery charger. Although rechargeable RCR123A and 16340 lithium-ion batteries may have similar physical dimensions, they can operate at a higher voltage and are not automatically interchangeable with primary 3V CR123 batteries. Always verify the equipment manufacturer's specified battery chemistry, voltage, physical dimensions, terminal configuration, and approved replacement battery requirements before installation. This battery is intended only for devices designed to accept compatible 3V primary CR123 or CR123A lithium batteries. Each purchase includes one MaxPowerCell CR123 3V Lithium Battery.
