What You Can Build With This

  • Build a portable phone charger using a 5V boost converter module and a TP4056 charger.
  • Create a high-power LED flashlight with a constant current driver for maximum brightness.
  • Assemble a rechargeable battery pack to power Arduino or Raspberry Pi projects on the go.
  • Power a small DC motor in a simple robot by connecting multiple cells in series for higher voltage.

Compatibility

This 18650 cell works with any device or project that accepts standard 18650 cells. It pairs seamlessly with common lithium-ion charger modules like the TP4056 for safe charging. The voltage range of 3.0–4.2V is standard, so verify your device's input requirements before use.

Wiring Notes

Solder tabs carefully to avoid overheating the cell terminals. Use a battery holder for easy replacement and to prevent short circuits. When combining cells, ensure they are matched in capacity and charge state, and always include a protection circuit for overcharge/overdischarge safety.

Why Buy from Compoden

Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.

Is this compatible with common TP4056 charger modules?

Yes, this 18650 cell is fully compatible with TP4056-based charger modules. Just connect with correct polarity and it will charge safely to 4.2V.

Can I use this in a high-drain device like a vape mod?

This cell is rated for a 2C continuous discharge (5.2A). For high-drain applications, consider a cell with a higher discharge rating to avoid overheating.

How long will this battery last in a basic USB power bank?

In a typical 5V boost circuit at 1A output, a 2600mAh cell can provide roughly 2.6 hours of runtime, assuming 100% efficiency; real-world efficiency is around 85%.
