Nominal capacity (at 15 mA + 20°C 2.0 V cut-off. The capacity restored by the cell varies according to current drain, temperature and cut-off) 5.8 Ah Open circuit voltage (at + 20°C) 3.67 V Nominal voltage (at 1mA + 20°C) 3.6 V Pulse capability: Typically up to 2000 mA (2000 mA/0.1 second pulses, drained every 2 mn at + 20°C from undischarged cells with 10 µA base current, yield voltage readings above 3.0 V. The readings may vary according to the pulse characteristics, the temperature, and the cell's previous history. Fitting the cell with a capacitor may be recommended in severe conditions. Consult Saft) Maximum recommended continuous current (to maintain cell heating within safe limits. Battery packs may imply lower level of maximum current and may request specific thermal protection. Consult Saft) Storage (recommended) (for more severe conditions, consult Saft) 1300 mA + 30°C (+ 86°F) max Operating temperature range (Operation at extreme T may lead to reduced capacity and lower voltage readings at the beginning of pulses.
