CR1616
The CR1616 size is a true heavyweight in powering miniature electronics. VIDEX lithium 3V technology ensures flawless operation for calculators and small remotes, giving you confidence that the device won't shut off at a critical moment.
Technical superiority of VIDEX CR batteries:
- Pazīstama arī kā (analogi): DL1616, ECR1616.
- High voltage (3V): Twice as powerful as regular alkaline batteries in a compact format.
- Excellent pulse discharge: Ideal for devices requiring periodic bursts of power (sensors, signals).
- Child-safe: Packed in a rigid blister to prevent accidents.

Q: What are the physical dimensions of the CR1616 battery and its unique format?
Q: Why do CR1616 lithium batteries dominate in Honda, Lexus, and Toyota remote controls (Smart Keys)?
Q: How does a lithium CR1616 battery behave in thin pedometers under regular vibration?
Q: Can a thinner CR1616 be inserted into sockets designed for a CR1620 or CR1632?
Q: How does storing a spare CR1616 battery in a car's sun visor in summer affect it?
A: The CR1616 is a 16.0 mm diameter battery, but its thickness is only 1.6 mm, providing approximately 50 mAh capacity at 3.0V voltage. This extremely thin geometry is specifically adapted to power ultra-flat car key cards (Smart Keys) and compact everyday measuring devices where space is critically limited.
Q: Why do CR1616 lithium batteries dominate in Honda, Lexus, and Toyota remote controls (Smart Keys)?
A: Asian car manufacturers' remotes often use a flat "Smart Card" design that physically does not allow the insertion of thicker elements. The VIDEX CR1616 Li-MnO2 element can continuously power the 125 kHz immobilizer ping signal, guaranteeing Keyless-Go function stability over a 1-2 year duty cycle without increasing the remote's size.
Q: How does a lithium CR1616 battery behave in thin pedometers under regular vibration?
A: Step counter accelerometers require a stable microampere power supply around the clock. The CR1616's dry lithium electrochemistry absorbs mechanical shocks while walking (there is no liquid electrolyte), maintaining a constant processor working voltage to avoid data loss.
Q: Can a thinner CR1616 be inserted into sockets designed for a CR1620 or CR1632?
A: Physically, the battery will fit in a 16.0 mm socket, but the 1.6 mm thickness (compared to 2.0 mm or 3.2 mm) will not form a tight contact with the device's negative spring. This will cause power interruptions when using the car remote (when pressing the button), and the smaller capacity (50 mAh versus 130 mAh) will rapidly discharge the element.
Q: How does storing a spare CR1616 battery in a car's sun visor in summer affect it?
A: When the temperature in the car cabin reaches +50°C to +60°C in summer, the lithium element's self-discharge can rapidly accelerate beyond the normal 2% per year. To guarantee a 5-year shelf life with 90% remaining capacity, the CR1616 spare MUST be stored in a dry environment at room temperature, not in a vehicle.
