Twelve cylindrical D-size lithium cells with button tops in a row

SAFT

SAFT LSH20 3.6V D 13000mAh Lithium Dry Cell Battery 12-Pack

SKU CH-2X78-FATGR

Twelve D-size lithium thionyl chloride cells deliver 3.6 volts and 13 Ah each with a ten-year shelf life

  • 12-pack delivers long-term power supply with 13 Ah per cell
  • 6 V lithium thionyl chloride chemistry provides stable voltage across extreme temperatures
  • Operates reliably from -60 °C to +85 °C for harsh environment deployments
  • Low self-discharge under 1 % per year ensures readiness after extended storage
  • 8 A continuous and 4 A pulse currents support high-drain applications

SAFT LSH20 D Cell 12-Pack

This pack contains twelve SAFT LSH20 lithium thionyl chloride batteries in D size. Each cell delivers a nominal 3.6 volts and 13 ampere-hours of capacity. They are suited for industrial metering, remote monitoring and security devices that demand long service intervals. Buyers who need rechargeable cells or standard consumer alkaline voltages should look elsewhere.

13 Ah Capacity and 1.8 A Continuous Current

The 13 Ah rating supports multi-year operation in low-drain telemetry and backup circuits. A maximum continuous current of 1.8 amperes and a 4 ampere pulse capability handle periodic high-drain events such as wireless transmissions. Applications requiring sustained currents above 1.8 amperes will exceed the cell's safe operating limit.

Button-Top Termination and -60°C to +85°C Range

Each battery measures 33 mm in diameter and 61.5 mm in height with a button-top termination for secure holder contact. The inorganic electrolyte is non-flammable and non-pressurised at ambient temperature. Operating range spans -60 °C to +85 °C with less than 1 % annual self-discharge at 20 °C. Designs needing solder tabs or pressurized enclosures cannot use these cells directly.

Questions about this item

Will the 3.6 V LSH20 cells work safely in older D-size devices designed for 1.5 V alkaline batteries?

No, the 3.6 V output is more than double the 1.5 V of alkaline cells and can damage equipment not designed for lithium thionyl chloride voltage.

How can I verify the 12-pack is performing to its 13 Ah rating after installation?

Measure each cell under load with a suitable tester; a healthy LSH20 should sustain 1.8 A continuous and deliver 4 A pulses while maintaining voltage near 3.6 V.

What comes in the box and what extra items are needed to use these button-top D cells?

The box contains twelve Saft LSH20 3.6 V 13 Ah D-size lithium batteries; no charger, holder or wiring is included and must be sourced separately.
