APPLICATION SCOPE: Off-grid solar storage in cold regions, EV auxiliary batteries, telecom backup in northern climates, polar research equipment, cold-chain logistics, and portable power for winter sports.
PACKAGING: Anti-static plastic trays (50 cells per tray, 200 cells per master carton). Insulated terminal covers included for safe transport.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: For charging at -20°C, use the recommended CC-CV profile with a reduced charge current (≤0.2C). The cell will not accept charge below -20°C. Always pair with a low-temperature BMS that enables charging only when cell temperature is within safe limits.

Frequently Asked Technical Questions
|
Can the AF26650LFP01 be charged at -20°C without heating?
Yes, the cell is specifically designed for direct charging at -20°C when using a reduced current (0.2C). No external heater is required, making it ideal for remote off-grid systems in cold climates.
What is the expected cycle life at -10°C?
At -10°C with 0.5C charge/discharge, cycle life is reduced by approximately 20% compared to 25°C, still exceeding 1200 cycles to 80% SOH. For maximum longevity, keep the battery above 0°C if possible.
Is this cell compatible with standard 26650 battery holders?
Yes, the AF26650LFP01 follows the standard 26mm diameter and 65mm height format, making it a drop-in replacement for most 26650 holders and pack configurations. Always verify terminal polarity and insulation.
What safety certifications are available?
The cell complies with UL 1642, IEC 62133-2:2021, UN38.3, and CE. Batch-level test reports including nail penetration, overcharge, and thermal abuse are available upon request.
Can I parallel multiple cells for higher capacity?
Yes, parallel connection is allowed. Ensure cells are matched within 5% in voltage and internal resistance before paralleling. Use a common busbar and avoid mixing cells from different production batches.
