• High-drain performance: 15A continuous discharge rating under specified conditions.

• 3.6V nominal voltage: Designed for equipment compatible with standard lithium-ion cells.

• Rechargeable design: Can be recharged using a suitable lithium-ion charger.

• Standard 18650 size: Fits compatible holders and battery pack configurations.

• Compact construction: Approximately 46.6g typical weight.

• Model identification: US18650VTC6.

Applications

• Compatible cordless power tools

• Robotics and electronic prototypes

• Custom lithium-ion battery packs

• Portable power equipment

• High-drain flashlights and compatible devices

• Electronic systems designed for 18650 cells

How to Use

1. Confirm that your device supports an 18650 lithium-ion cell with a 3.6V nominal voltage.

2. Charge with a compatible lithium-ion charger that limits charging voltage to 4.2V.

3. Observe the correct polarity when installing the battery.

4. For battery packs, use an appropriately rated battery management system (BMS), overcurrent protection, and temperature monitoring.

5. Ensure that the current draw and cell temperature remain within the manufacturer's specified operating limits.

Important Notes

• This product is typically an unprotected bare cell and may not include built-in overcharge, over-discharge, or short-circuit protection.

• Do not exceed the specified charging voltage or use an incompatible charger.

• High-current operation generates heat. Do not assume that a higher short-duration discharge figure is a safe continuous rating.

• Never short-circuit, puncture, crush, dismantle, or expose the cell to fire.

• Avoid direct soldering to the cell terminals; use suitable cell-assembly methods.

• Confirm authenticity, terminal style, and dimensions before building a battery pack. Murata recommends that lithium-ion cells be incorporated into finished products with appropriate safety measures.
