This is the same 18650 Lithium Ion Cell that you know and love, but now includes pre-attached solder tabs! These round high capacity cells have been mainly used in flashlight type applications but with its capability to be used as a drop-in rechargable cell at 3.7V with a capacity of 2600mAh. This battery has been made even better with the attached solder tabs. You now have a much wider range of applications to drop this battery into while still remaining simple to install!
