The CR123A battery has the following advantages:
High energy density:
Adopting the lithium-manganese dioxide chemical system, it can store a large amount of electrical energy in a relatively small volume. It is suitable for devices that require high energy support, such as tactical flashlights, digital cameras, etc. Compared with non-lithium system batteries, its energy density is 3 to 10 times higher.
High and stable voltage:
The rated voltage is generally 3V, which is twice that of ordinary alkaline batteries, and it can provide stronger power for devices. Moreover, during the entire discharge process, it can maintain a stable operating voltage, ensuring the stable performance of electrical appliances, extending the maintenance-free cycle of the equipment, and reducing the damage to the equipment caused by voltage fluctuations.
Wide temperature range adaptability:
It can work normally within a temperature range from -40°C to 70°C or even a wider range. This characteristic enables it to be used in extreme environmental conditions. For example, devices in cold outdoor environments or high-temperature industrial environments can still operate stably relying on the CR123A battery.
Long service life:
With a low self-discharge rate, when stored at room temperature, the annual self-discharge rate usually does not exceed 2%. It has a shelf life of about 10 years. Even if it is stored for a long time, it can still retain a certain amount of power. It is very suitable for some devices that are not frequently used but need to be kept available at any time, such as security alarm systems, backup lighting equipment, etc.
Good high-current discharge performance:
It can provide a large discharge current to meet the power requirements of some high-energy-consuming devices at the moment of startup or during continuous high-load operation. Devices like flashlights and electric shavers can achieve better performance when using the CR123A battery.
Good safety:
It adopts a reliable sealing structure and high-quality positive and negative electrode active materials and electrolytes, and has good anti-leakage performance, which can effectively prevent the damage to the equipment caused by battery leakage. At the same time, various safety measures are taken during the design and manufacturing process of the battery, such as setting vent holes, etc., to prevent safety problems such as overheating and explosion of the battery during use.
Wide applicability:
It is suitable for various types of devices, including but not limited to flashlights, cameras, medical equipment, security systems, GPS positioning trackers, smart water and electricity meters, smoke alarms, CD/MD players, electronic notebooks and pagers, various types of toys, video game consoles, electric shavers, etc.
