As the designer and original producer of prismatic Li-SOCl2 cells, EaglePicher is truly an innovator in this chemistry. Li-SOCl2 batteries and cells have been in production at EaglePicher for over 25 years. Our line has expanded to include cylindrical cells from ½ AA to D sizes as well as wafer designs, which means the EaglePicher line of Li-SOCl2 cells can fit any application that calls for the long-life, low current drain characteristics of this chemistry. The applications that Li-SOCl2 cells power benefit from the high energy density offered by a 3.6-volt chemistry that can be packaged in a small space. Add the 15+ years of confirmed shelf life, a flat discharge curve and wide operating temperature range (-55C to +85C) make EaglePicher Li-SOCl2 cells the right choice when designing a new product or replacing an old one. |
