Product description

Nitecore NL166 is a rechargeable 16340 (RCR123A) lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 650 mAh and a voltage of 3.7 V. The battery is designed for flashlights and other high-drain electronics compatible with rechargeable RCR123A batteries.
With over 500 charging cycles, the NL166 is an economical alternative to disposable batteries in equipment used regularly. The battery features a raised positive terminal (button top) and built-in protection circuitry that contributes to safe use.

Built-in protection features

NL166 has protection circuits against overcharging, over-discharging and short circuits. The design also includes temperature protection via PTC and a pressure relief valve. Nickel-plated contact ends provide good electrical contact and resistance to corrosion.

Compatibility and charging

The battery is in the 16340/RCR123A format and is intended for equipment that supports this battery type. Please note that rechargeable RCR123A batteries have a higher voltage than standard disposable CR123A batteries (3.7 V compared with 3 V). Therefore, check that the equipment is compatible before use.
