Performance You Can Count On
The cell delivers ≥4800mAh at 10A discharge at room temperature.
At 25±3°C, 10A discharge is used as the 100% reference. Relative capacity is ≥95% at 15A, ≥95% at 20A, ≥93% at 30A, and ≥85% at 40A.
Temperature performance is also strong: ≥80% at -20°C, ≥85% at -10°C, ≥85% at 0°C, and ≥95% at 60°C.
Cycle life options include:
-
10A charge / 10A discharge: ≥80% after 300 cycles
-
5A charge / 25A discharge: ≥60% after 300 cycles
-
5A charge / 35A discharge with 75°C cut: ≥60% after 100 cycles
Safety and Environmental Testing
The INR21700-5000 is tested for overcharge, forced discharge, short circuit, crush, and 130°C heating. It meets no fire, no explosion requirements under these tests.
It also passes low-pressure, free-drop, vibration, and thermal cycling tests. This makes it suitable for tough applications where reliability matters.
Storage and Handling
-
Operating temperature: charge 0°C–45°C ambient / 0°C–50°C surface; discharge -20°C–60°C ambient / -20°C–80°C surface
-
Storage temperature: 3 months at -20°C–45°C; 1 year at -20°C–25°C
-
Long-term storage voltage: 3.5V–3.7V
-
For storage over 3 months, recharge every 3 months at 0.5C to 3.65V
