Xeno Energy

Xeno Energy XL-145F 3.6V C 8.5Ah Lithium Battery 12-Pack

SKU CH-GENE-VF320

Twelve 3.6V C-size lithium cells deliver 8.5Ah each with a 10-plus-year shelf life and sub-1% annual self-discharge

  • 12-pack delivers long-term power for multiple devices
  • 6V lithium chemistry provides high, stable operating voltage
  • 5Ah capacity supports extended runtime in demanding applications
  • 10+ year shelf life with less than 1% annual self-discharge
  • Operates reliably from -55°C to +85°C in humid conditions

Industrial Power Source

The Xeno Energy XL-145F is a primary lithium-thionyl chloride cell in C size delivering 3.6 Volt nominal voltage and 8.5Ah capacity. This 12-pack suits engineers and maintenance teams deploying remote sensors, utility meters or tracking beacons that require dependable energy for years without replacement.

Sustained Discharge Behaviour

The chemistry maintains high operating voltage through most of the application lifetime with a maximum recommended continuous current of 150mA. Pulse capability reaches 230mA for brief transmissions. Self-discharge stays below 1% per year at +20°C and capacity loss remains under 1% during storage up to +30°C, supporting 10+ year shelf life.

Installation Constraints

Each button-top cell weighs 51g and fits standard C holders compatible with listed references such as LS26500C and TL-4920. The battery is not rechargeable; any charging attempt creates safety hazards. Solder tabs only for a few seconds to avoid heat damage. Do not mix models in series and store in clean, cool, dry, ventilated conditions.

Questions about this item

Does the XL-145F generate noticeable heat or consume extra power during continuous low-drain use?

The battery operates from -55 °C to +85 °C with a maximum continuous current of 150 mA and a pulse capability of 230 mA; it produces no measurable heat at typical loads.

What device or holder is required to use these C-size button-top cells?

They fit any standard C-size battery compartment with button-top contacts and are listed as compatible with models such as TL-4920, TL-5920, Saft LS26500C and ER26500.

Can I mix the XL-145F with older lithium cells like the XL-140F in the same equipment?

The supplier advises against using different models in series; the XL-145F is compatible with XL-140F only when each cell is used independently.
