Product Description:
Unlock extreme power for your high-demand electronics with the HIBATT IMR16500 3.7V 950mAh 12A High-Drain Li-ion Battery (2-Pack). This is a genuine IMR (Lithium Manganese Oxide) power cell designed specifically for devices that require massive, instantaneous current output. With an impressive 12A continuous discharge and 19A peak current, this battery delivers the raw energy needed to drive high-lumen flashlights,and motorized equipment.
We offer this high-performance battery in 2 different terminal styles within this listing:
Button Top (Crown): Height approx. 51.5mm. Features a raised positive terminal, perfect for spring-loaded battery compartments.
Flat Top: Height approx. 50mm. Features a smooth, flat positive terminal, ideal for devices with flat contact plates or custom spot-welding.
CRITICAL COMPATIBILITY AND USAGE WARNINGS:
High-Drain Power Cell: This is a 12A continuous discharge battery. It is designed strictly for high-power devices. DO NOT use this in standard low-power electronics (clocks, sensors), as it may discharge completely without a proper cut-off circuit.
Capacity vs. Runtime: It has a capacity of 950mAh. It is optimized for high-power bursts, not extended runtime. If you need long runtime, please choose a 1200mAh standard cell instead.
Size Alert: This is a 16500 battery. Its diameter is 16.5mm, which is thicker than standard 14500 (14mm) or 16340 batteries. Please measure your device's battery slot to ensure it can fit the 16.5mm diameter and the correct height (50mm for Flat Top, 51.5mm for Button Top).
Key Features:
True 12A High-Drain Performance: Delivers a massive 12A continuous discharge (19A peak), providing instant high current for heavy-duty devices.
High Power IMR Chemistry: Built with advanced Lithium Manganese Oxide technology for superior thermal stability and low internal resistance under heavy loads.
950mAh Optimized Capacity: Specifically balanced for high current output, ensuring stable voltage even during intense power draws.
2-in-1 Terminal Selection: Choose between Button Top (51.5mm) for spring contacts or Flat Top (50mm) for flat plates or spot welding.
Convenient 2-Pack: Each order includes 2 identical batteries, perfect for dual-battery devices or having a reliable backup.

FAQ:
Q: What is the difference between the "Button Top" and "Flat Top" variants?
A: The Button Top variant has a raised positive terminal and is 51.5mm long. It is designed for spring-loaded battery compartments. The Flat Top variant is 50mm long and has a flat terminal, suitable for flat contact plates or custom spot-welding into a battery pack.
Q: Why is the capacity only 950mAh? I saw a 1200mAh version.
A: This is a High-Drain (12A) power cell. To deliver 12A of continuous current safely without overheating, the battery prioritizes power output over storage capacity. The 1200mAh version is a standard drain battery that cannot handle high currents. The 950mAh is the accurate spec for this powerful cell.
Q: Can I use this 12A battery in my standard flashlight?
A: Only if your flashlight is a high-power tactical model that pulls over 3A of current. If used in a small low-power flashlight, it will drain fast but will not cause damage. However, DO NOT use it in devices without low-voltage cut-off protection.
Q: Is this battery protected (with a PCB)?
A: No. This is an unprotected IMR high-drain cell. It relies on your device's built-in protection circuit. Do not over-discharge it below 2.75V.
Q: What type of charger should I use?
A: You need a dedicated smart charger that supports 3.7V/4.2V Li-ion batteries and can handle high-drain cells. Avoid cheap trickle chargers.
Free Shipping: Enjoy free shipping on all orders over $65. For orders under $65, the shipping cost is $8.99.
Delivery Time: Once shipped, orders typically arrive within 7–15 business days.
