Very compactly built 14500 Li-ion battery equipped with Protection/PCB with short circuit, overcharge and deep discharge protection. The length of the batteries benefits from the innovation, because by using suitable cells and the electronics at the positive terminal, the cell reaches 51.0 mm ± 0.5 mm in length. The Soshine 14500 batteries are especially recommended for model making (RC Aircraft, RC Cars, and RC Robots), torches and LEDs.

Safety instructions:

Please note that lithium cells may only be used by competent persons.
Incorrect handling or short-circuiting may result in fire or explosion.

Further properties:

Lithium-ion batteries are thermally stable and are not subject to memory effect.
They work on the basis of lithium and are characterised by a high energy density.

Notes:

A special charger is required for charging lithium ion batteries, which charges the batteries according to a special charging procedure. (CCCV = constant current, constant voltage.) The batteries must not be charged above a voltage of 4.2V +-0.05, otherwise there is a risk of fire and explosion. It is advantageous to charge the batteries only up to approx. 4.1 volts, as this significantly increases the service life or the number of charging cycles (possibly up to double). Only lithium ion chargers may be used for charging. However, the cheap chargers sometimes have the disadvantage that they do not switch off safely at the end of the charging process, but continue to charge the batteries with a small charging current, which can be dangerous.

Furthermore, rechargeable batteries and batteries do not belong in household waste! Please dispose of them as prescribed by law at the municipal collection points or in the [usually green] containers provided by retailers.
