Product description
Rechargeable Li-Ion RCR123A Battery with Protection Circuit. Designed to replace the non-rechargeable version of the CR123A. This cell is slightly shorter than the standard CR123A specification, measuring 32.5 mm instead of 34.5 mm. This generally does not cause any compatibility issues.
The built-in protection circuit safeguards against overcharging, overheating, overcurrent, deep discharge, and short-circuiting. The battery features long service life and low self-discharge. Suitable for use in applications such as surveillance cameras, photo cameras, and flashlights. Cells with integrated protection circuits can be connected in series but must be charged individually (using a charger with separate charging channels).
