1 x 18650 Battery Holder SMD

Surface-Mount (SMD/SMT) Architecture: Low-profile surface-mount solder tabs enable direct automated or manual soldering onto PCB surface traces, optimizing layout real estate for compact electronics.

Single 18650 Lithium-Ion Cell Compatibility: Custom-molded cradle securely houses one 3.7V 18650 cylindrical lithium-ion cell, serving as a primary or backup DC power source for embedded systems.

Gold/Tin-Plated Phosphor Bronze Contacts: High-conductivity spring tension terminals ensure low contact resistance, minimal voltage drop, and reliable connection even under structural vibration.

High-Temperature Thermoplastic Housing: Crafted from heat-resistant UL94V-0 rated plastic that withstands reflow soldering heat and continuous operating temperatures without deforming.

Positive and Negative Polarity Indicators: Clearly molded polarity symbols (+ and -) on the base floor prevent reverse polarity battery installation and downstream circuit damage.

Secure Mechanical Snap Retention: Precision end tabs hold the battery tightly in place without requiring external clip hardware or zip ties, while remaining accessible for rapid cell swaps.

Housing Material: Flame-retardant, high-temperature UL94V-0 thermoplastic.

Terminal Material: Phosphor Bronze with selective Gold/Tin plating.

Technical Specifications:

Cell Support: 1x 18650 Li-ion Cell (3.7V nominal).

Mounting Style: Surface Mount Device (SMD/SMT).

Weight: 0.05 kg.
