Pack of twelve 3 V lithium coin cells with horizontal PC pins, 12.5 mm × 2.5 mm, up to ten-year shelf life

  • Battery typeCR1225
  • 12-pack keeps spares on hand for multiple devices
  • 3 V lithium chemistry delivers steady voltage for reliable operation

Panasonic BR1225/HCN 12-Pack

These Panasonic BR1225/HCN lithium coin cells come in a 12-pack for devices that require a 3V supply with through-hole pins. They suit maintenance teams, repair shops and hobbyists who keep spares for motherboards, meters or small electronics. The horizontal-mount PC pins are designed for direct PCB soldering rather than holder insertion. Buyers needing a quick-swap battery without soldering should look elsewhere.

Thermals, noise and power draw

As passive primary cells they generate no heat, emit no noise and draw no power while idle in storage. The lithium chemistry delivers a stable 3V output across a wide temperature range during normal operation. Shelf life reaches up to 10 years when kept at room temperature. Continuous voltage supply is maintained until the cell is depleted.

Build quality and connectors

Each cell measures 12.5 mm by 2.5 mm and uses a horizontal PC-pin termination for through-hole mounting. The pin layout matches the BR1225-1HC and BR1225-1HCE footprints used in many legacy boards. Twelve pieces are supplied in one pack for volume needs. Superior storage capacity supports long-term reliability in installed equipment.

Questions about this item

How do I solder the horizontal PC pins on the BR1225/HCN to a PCB?

The pins are designed for horizontal through-hole mounting; align the 12.5 mm x 2.5 mm body, insert pins into the plated holes, and solder from the opposite side without bending the terminals.

When should I replace the 12-pack cells if they sit in storage before use?

Panasonic rates the lithium chemistry for up to 10 years shelf life, so replace any unused cells once they reach that age.

What voltage drop signals the end of useful life under continuous load?

The 3 V lithium cell maintains a steady output until depletion; when the voltage falls noticeably below 3 V the capacity is effectively exhausted.
