Mixed Use
Do not use the battery with other batteries unless
they will always be used together. Only use
batteries of the same capacity together.
Charging Time
Stop charging if the battery cannot finish charging
within the specified time.
Charging Temperature
The charging temperature range is regulated
between 10 Deg C / 50 Deg F and 45 Deg C / 113
Deg F.
Direct Sunlight
Do not use or leave the battery in excessive heat
such as in a car with direct sunlight.
Use by Children
Parents must teach how to use the battery and
system. Keep checking periodically.
Flammable Materials
Do not charge or discharge near flammable
materials like a bed mattress.
Leakage on Skin
If leakage gets on skin or clothing, flush with water
to help prevent irritation.
Insulation
If wires or metal objects come out from battery
please seal and insulate them.
Recycle
Recycle battery at local battery drop-off point.
The rechargeable revolution is here and Lithium-Ion is now the premier way to store energy. These futuristic cells are
powering the next generation of devices. They are the engines powering laptops, drones, phones, cars and even the
Mars Rovers.
The Golden Rule is : IF your battery gets unusually hot, let it rest.
The 18650 cell contains flammable chemicals such as organic solvents. 18650 batteries are the most popular type of
Lithium-Ion batteries. Even though there are many safety precautions, they are surprisingly hardy and safe to use. Each
authentic cell is rigorously tested for safety, including one-meter drop tests, before they reach you. Nonetheless you
must treat your 18650 battery with respect.
Li-Ion Battery Warnings
High Temperature
Do not use or place the battery near fire or high
temperatures (more than 70 Deg C / 158 Deg F)
Wrong Charger
Do not use chargers not compatible with Li-Ion
batteries. Max. charge should be 4.20V for
18650s.
Reverse Polarity
Make sure the + and - poles are orientated
correctly. Do not force them into the mount.
Soldering
Do not solder directly onto the battery: the
insulator could melt or damage the vent.
Disassembly and Reconstruction
Do not disassemble the battery. You may damage
the protection circuit or worse.
Deformation
Do not use a battery with conspicuous damage or
deformation.
Direct Connection
Do not connect the battery with AC plug (outlet) or
car plugs.
Short Circuit
Do not connect the + and - terminals with
conductive material. Keep out of pockets.
Penetration
Be careful not to penetrate with a nail or strike with
a hammer.
