USB 12000mWh Rechargeable D Size Li-ion Batteries (LR20) are modern, eco-friendly power solutions designed to replace traditional alkaline D cells. These 1.5V batteries feature built-in Type-C charging ports, enabling convenient recharging for gas appliances like liquefied gas cookers. With high capacity and 500+ recharge cycles, they reduce waste and offer long-term cost savings.
How Do USB Rechargeable D Batteries Differ From Alkaline Cells?
Unlike disposable alkaline batteries, these Li-ion units maintain stable 1.5V output throughout discharge cycles. Their 12000mWh capacity outperforms standard alkaline D cells (typically 15,000-18,000mWh) but lasts longer through 500+ recharges. Integrated Type-C ports eliminate external chargers, while smart circuitry prevents overcharging. Users save 70-80% over 3 years compared to alkaline replacements.
Why Choose Li-ion Technology for Gas Appliance Batteries?
Lithium-ion chemistry provides consistent voltage crucial for gas valve operation. Traditional batteries drop voltage as they drain, potentially causing ignition failures. EVE’s Li-ion cells deliver flat discharge curves, maintaining 1.5V until depletion. This ensures reliable spark generation in cookers and heaters, even in cold environments where alkaline performance degrades.
Which Appliances Support These Rechargeable D Batteries?
Compatible devices include liquefied gas cookers, propane heaters, camping stoves, and CO detectors requiring D cells. Specifically designed for high-drain applications drawing 500-1000mA continuously. Not recommended for low-drain devices like clocks where self-discharge (3% monthly) might reduce efficiency. Always verify voltage compatibility before installation.
How Does the Type-C Charging System Enhance Usability?
The integrated Type-C port enables direct charging from phone adapters, power banks, or solar chargers. A full 4-hour charge delivers 120+ appliance hours. Reverse polarity protection and temperature monitoring ensure safe charging. The universal connector eliminates proprietary chargers, making these batteries ideal for off-grid use and emergency preparedness kits.
Advanced charging protocols automatically adjust input from 5V/2A to 9V/1.67A sources, optimizing speed based on power availability. Users can monitor progress through the LED indicator system – steady red during charging, green when full. Field tests show 95% charge efficiency even when using third-party chargers, with cross-compatibility across 87% of USB-C devices sold since 2020.
Power Source | Charging Time | Appliance Runtime |
---|---|---|
10W Solar Panel | 5.5 hours | 110 hours |
18W PD Charger | 3.8 hours | 125 hours |
5V/2A Power Bank | 4.2 hours | 118 hours |
What Safety Features Protect Against Battery Failures?
Multi-layered safeguards include overcharge prevention (stops at 4.2V±0.05V), short-circuit protection (instant cutoff), and thermal runaway mitigation. The flame-retardant ABS casing withstands 130°C temperatures. Built-in PCM (Protection Circuit Module) monitors cell balance during charging, ensuring stable performance across 2000+ discharge cycles.
The battery management system employs three-stage protection: primary IC control, secondary MOSFET shutdown, and mechanical pressure relief vents. Rigorous testing includes 12m drop tests, 85% humidity exposure, and 200kPa crush resistance. Independent lab results show 0 thermal events in 10,000 charge cycles under normal operating conditions.
Safety Feature | Activation Threshold | Response Time |
---|---|---|
Overcharge Protection | 4.25V | <50ms |
Overdischarge Cutoff | 2.5V | <100ms |
Temperature Control | 60°C | <200ms |
When Should Users Recharge These Li-ion Batteries?
Recharge when appliance performance drops, typically every 2-3 months with daily use. The Type-C port’s LED indicator flashes red during charging and turns green at full capacity. Partial recharges cause no memory effect. For storage, maintain 50% charge and recharge every 6 months to prevent deep discharge damage.
“EVE’s innovation bridges the gap between consumer electronics and industrial power needs. By adapting Li-ion tech to standard D-cell dimensions with direct USB charging, they’ve created a game-changer for off-grid energy solutions. These batteries could reduce global alkaline waste by 12,000 tons annually if adopted widely.”
