Fenix 18650 rechargeable battery, 2600 mAh, (Li-Ion)
The high-end rechargeable batteries Fenix 18650 2600 mAh (ARB-L2) with protection (protected) are based on lithium-ion technology. Li-ion rechargeable batteries are characterized by a very high capacity, they do not suffer from memory effect or self-discharge. Li-ion in the size of 18650 are the best choice in terms of stored energy due to the size and weight of the battery.
Fenix battery protection consists of internal safety mechanisms and protective electronics. The added electronic circuits prevent the cell from being overcharged, its excessive discharge, and against a short circuit or excessively high current consumption. If the battery electronics evaluates reaching the limit values, it safely disconnects the cell.
Internal protection consists of a separator, protection against overheating (PTC thermal protection) and a special anti-explosion valve. If the gas pressure in the cell exceeds a certain limit, the internal separator separates the electrodes inside the battery and thus de-facto interrupts the exothermic reaction, and the anti-explosion valve releases the excess gas pressure outside the battery. Thanks to the combination of electronic and mechanical (temperature and pressure) protection, Fenix batteries are among the safest Li-ion batteries available.
The size of the 18650 accumulator corresponds to roughly two CR123A lithium batteries, which is why it is often used in lights as a rechargeable alternative to these primary cells. Check first if your appliance supports this article. This battery is designed, for example, for operation in LED lamps Fenix E28R, E30R, Fenix E35 UE (not intended for E35 V3.0), PD32 V2.0, PD35, TK11 TAC, TK15, TK16 (only 1000 lm version), TK25 UV, TK25 IR, TK25 Red, TK25 R&B, TK26R, TK75, FD41, LD30, SD11, SD20.LED headlamps Fenix HL55, HL60R, HP25R (1000lm version only), HP30R (1750lm version only), HM60R, HM61R, HM65R, HM65R-T, CL26R, CL30R lanterns and Fenix BC21R and BC30 bike lights.
Attention, due to the length of 70 mm and the diameter, it may not fit some old models - for example Fenix PD31, TK11, TK21, TK30.
