Safety Precautions

⚠ Please mind potential fire risk and strictly follow the instruction manual for charging and storage. For disposal, please check your local authority's website for more information and dispose of the lithium-ion battery safely in accordance with the applicable legal requirements.

• Disassembly is prohibited: Do not disassemble the battery. Removal can lead to short circuits, fire, explosion, harmful gases, or other problems.
• Electrolyte is harmful: In case the electrolyte touches the skin or enters the eyes, wash immediately with clean water and consult a doctor.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire: Burning batteries can cause them to explode.
• No immersion of batteries: Do not immerse the battery in liquids such as water, seawater, non-alcoholic drinks, juices, coffee, or other beverages.
• Prohibit the use of damaged batteries: If batteries are found to be abnormal (e.g., damaged packaging, wrapped, deformed, electrolyte smell, leaks), do not use them. If the battery has an odor or leaks, keep it away from fire sources.
• Other considerations:
  • Do not put batteries in heaters, washing machines, or high-pressure containers.
  • Do not charge the battery with an unspecified or unsafe charger.
  • If the battery becomes hot, odorous, discolored, deformed, or shows other abnormalities during charging or storage, discontinue use immediately.
  • Keep the battery out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.
  • When children use batteries, guardians should explain the operation method in detail.
  • Before using batteries, read the operation guide in detail and understand all matters needing attention.
  • Batteries should be charged, used, and stored away from static electricity.
  • Do not use or leave batteries in cars near fire sources or at temperatures over 60°C. Do not charge or discharge in these environments.
  • Do not put batteries in handbags with metal items such as necklaces, hairpins, coins, or screws, or store batteries with such items.
  • It is forbidden to store lithium batteries in damp places or expose them to moisture, rain, and water.
  • Pay attention to the positive and negative poles of the battery during use.
  • Do not use batteries with severe deformation.

Setup and Charging

Before first use, ensure your batteries are fully charged. Use a compatible charger designed for 1.5V Li-ion batteries. The battery has a built-in LED indicator to show its status during charging.

• Insert the batteries into a compatible charger, ensuring correct polarity (+ and -).
• The LED indicator on the battery will provide feedback on the charging status. Refer to your charger's manual for specific indicator meanings.
• Charging voltage is 5V.
• Do not use unspecified or unsafe chargers.

Operating Instructions

These batteries are designed for devices requiring a stable 1.5V output. They maintain constant voltage throughout their discharge cycle, unlike traditional Ni-MH batteries which experience voltage decline.

• Insert the batteries into your device, observing the correct positive (+) and negative (-) polarity.
• The batteries provide a constant 1.5V output, suitable for various medium to high-drain devices, ensuring stable operation.
• Maximum continuous discharge current is 2.5A.
• The built-in LED indicator can help monitor battery status during use.

Maintenance and Storage

• Regular Charging: If the battery is not used for a long time, store it in a cool and dry place. It is recommended to charge and discharge the battery using standard methods once every six months. After discharging, charge for 1.5 hours to maintain its health.
• Temperature: The batteries operate reliably in temperatures from -20°C to 60°C. Avoid extreme temperatures outside this range for storage and operation.
• Storage: When not in use, store batteries in a battery box in a cool, dry place, away from metal objects to prevent short circuits.
• Cleaning: Keep battery contacts clean and dry.

Troubleshooting

• Battery not charging:
  • Ensure the charger is compatible with 1.5V Li-ion batteries.
  • Check if the battery is inserted with correct polarity.
  • Verify the charger is properly connected to a power source.
  • Inspect batteries for any physical damage or deformation.
• Device not powering on or unstable operation:
  • Check if the batteries are fully charged.
  • Ensure correct battery insertion and polarity in the device.
  • Clean battery contacts on both the battery and the device.
  • Confirm the device is compatible with 1.5V Li-ion batteries.
• Battery overheating during use or charging:
  • Immediately discontinue use or charging.
  • Ensure the charger is compatible and not faulty.
  • Avoid using batteries in high-temperature environments.
  • If overheating persists, the battery may be damaged; discontinue use and dispose of safely.

Specifications

User Tips

• Charger Compatibility: For optimal performance and safety, use chargers specifically designed for 1.5V Li-ion batteries. Avoid using chargers intended for Ni-MH or other battery chemistries, as this can damage the batteries or pose safety risks.
• Discharge Profile: These batteries offer a constant 1.5V output throughout their discharge cycle, providing consistent power until nearly depleted. This is a significant advantage over traditional Ni-MH batteries, which experience a gradual voltage drop.
• Long-Term Storage: If storing batteries for extended periods, ensure they are partially charged (around 50-70%) and stored in a cool, dry place. Periodically check and recharge them every six months to maintain battery health.
