SAFT LSH14 3.6V C High-Power Lithium Battery

Description

The SAFT LSH14 is a non-rechargeable 3.6 V C-size lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl₂) battery. It’s engineered for industrial and electronic equipment that needs higher continuous current or brief bursts of power.

Cross-Reference and Compatibility

The LSH14 may be suitable as a replacement for the following high-power 3.6 V C-size lithium-thionyl chloride batteries:

• ER26500HD
• LSH14BA (LSH14-BA)

Important: Verify the battery dimensions, terminal configuration, continuous-current requirements, and pulse-current requirements before substituting batteries. Equivalent size and voltage do not guarantee compatibility with every device.

Key Features

• Low self-discharge helps preserve capacity during storage
