Reliable 26500 and LS26500 lithium cells for industry

The 26500 battery, also known as LS26500, ER26500 or C-size lithium thionyl chloride cell, is designed for long-term, low-current industrial power. With a nominal voltage of 3.6V and capacities around 8500 mAh for LS26500 versions, these cells are widely used in smart metering, telemetry, security systems, tracking devices, industrial electronics and remote sensors. Some customers search for this format as 26,500, but in battery specifications the standard designation is 26500.

Battery ER 26500 SAFT Li-SOCl2 LS26500 3.6V 8500 mAh

High energy density with stable 3.6V output

Li-SOCl2 26500 batteries are selected when equipment must operate for years without frequent service. Compared with many conventional chemistries, lithium thionyl chloride cells offer very low self-discharge, excellent voltage stability and strong performance in demanding environments. SAFT LS26500 models are a popular choice for professional installations where consistency, documentation and proven reliability matter.

Choose the right brand and format

This category includes SAFT, EVE and Uniross ER26500 / LS26500 industrial cells, allowing you to match the battery to your device requirements and procurement preferences. Always compare the original part number, voltage, capacity, cell size and terminal design before replacing a battery. In many applications, the correct connector or solder tab type is just as important as the electrical specification.

Terminal options for installation and battery packs

Different industrial devices require different mounting solutions. Standard button-top cells are suitable for compatible holders, while cells with U tabs, Z tabs, U-plate, Z-plate or axial terminals are intended for soldering, PCB assembly or custom battery pack construction. Selecting the correct terminal type helps reduce installation time and supports a secure electrical connection.

  • Standard LS26500 cells for holders and compatible equipment.
  • U and Z tabs for pack assembly or direct soldering.
  • Axial terminals for specialised layouts and wiring configurations.
  • LSH 14 alternatives when the device requires higher pulse capability in the same C-size class.

Typical applications

26500 lithium cells are commonly installed in electricity, gas and water meters, alarm systems, emergency transmitters, data loggers, GPS and asset tracking modules, wireless sensors, oil and gas equipment, medical electronics and control modules. Their long shelf life makes them practical for maintenance stocks, while their stable discharge profile supports reliable operation in devices that draw small currents over extended periods.

Buying guidance

Before ordering, verify whether your device needs LS26500, ER26500 or LSH 14, and check the terminal orientation shown on the old cell or in the service manual. Lithium thionyl chloride batteries are generally not rechargeable, so they must never be charged or substituted with an unsuitable rechargeable cell. Browse the products in this category to find the correct 26500 industrial battery for replacement, production, servicing or spare stock.
