Safety & Usage Restrictions (Important Notice)
- Unprotected bare cell warning: These are bare industrial lithium-ion cells without built-in protection circuit boards (no PCM/PCB).
- Professional assembly only: Intended exclusively for qualified technicians building multi-cell battery packs equipped with an appropriate Battery Management System (BMS) with overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, and temperature protection.
- Never carry loose cells: Do not transport loose cells in pockets, bags, or toolboxes where contact with keys, coins, or metal objects can cause short circuits, fire, or severe injury. Always store in non-conductive plastic battery cases.
- Prohibited consumer use: Not suitable for direct, loose consumer replacement use in flashlights, toys, or consumer vaping hardware lacking proper cell enclosures and protection.
- Charging precautions: Charge only on a dedicated lithium-ion CC/CV smart charger at recommended rates (0.5C–1C). Never leave charging cells unattended.
- Physical inspection: Inspect cell outer wraps and terminal insulator rings before every use. Never charge or weld dented, punctured, swelling, or leaking cells.
