CR1216 3V Lithium Coin Cell Batteries

Why choose a CR1216 3V lithium cell?

Lithium coin cells are valued for their long shelf life, stable voltage and dependable performance over time. A CR1216 3V battery is ideal for devices that need low, consistent current in a compact format. Compared with alkaline button cells, lithium chemistry provides stronger voltage stability, better storage performance and excellent resistance to leakage when used correctly.

• Nominal voltage: 3V lithium manganese dioxide chemistry.
• Size: CR1216, also written as CR 1216 or CR 12 16.
• Typical use: watches, small remotes, calculators, electronic organizers and sensors.
• Key benefit: compact power with reliable long-term storage.

Storage and safe handling tips

Store CR1216 lithium batteries in their original packaging until use, away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight. Keep them separated from metal objects to avoid short circuits. When replacing a cell, avoid touching both flat surfaces for a long time, as oils and moisture from fingers can reduce contact quality. Insert the battery with the correct polarity, usually with the positive side facing up unless the device indicates otherwise.

Always keep coin cell batteries away from children and pets. If swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
