Saft LS26500 primary lithium cell, is based on the Lithium-Thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl2) chemistry. The LS26500 key features are the concentric electrodes (“bobbin”) construction that enables maximum loading of active materials and corresponding energy.
The LS26500 cell is designed specifically for long-term (3 to 15 years) applications, featuring a few UA based currents and periodic pulses, typically in the 5-150 mA range. Bulk Pack 60 Batteries Per Case
