Details

X-Cell batteries do not require separate transformers or adaptors. Just plug them straight into the mains or low voltage supply with the leads provided.

The cost of recharging an X-Cell battery from the mains is negligible at less than 0.5p.

X-Cell batteries do not leak or corrode.

They cannot be damaged by being over-charged nor by being left discharged. Once charged X-Cell batteries will remain in this state for upwards of one year.

X-Cell batteries do not suffer from memory effect and are protected against short circuit by an automatic resetting current limit.

They are physically and electrically robust and the patented technology guarantees a very long life during which an X-Cell battery will pay for itself many times over.

X-CELL TRUE 6v VERSION

Used for diving torches and certain types of electronic equipment. Output voltage (on load) is 6v. Further details available on request.


ACCESSORIES

Screw top terminal adaptor

This removable adaptor slots over the battery springs and clips over the base of the X-Cell rechargeable battery to provide convenient multi-way 4mm terminal post output connections.
