Purpose & Fit
The Tadiran TL-2300/S is a 3.6V D-size lithium thionyl chloride primary cell delivering 16.5 Ah. It suits devices that need very long service intervals such as utility meters, remote sensors, tracking beacons and memory-backup circuits. Buyers who need a rechargeable pack or higher continuous current should look elsewhere.
Build & Connections
The bobbin-type chemistry provides a stable high voltage across most of the discharge curve and a self-discharge below 1 percent per year at 20 °C. A button-top termination allows direct placement in standard D holders, while the 33 mm by 61.5 mm dimensions match common D-form-factor compartments. The inorganic electrolyte is non-flammable and non-pressurised at ambient temperature.
Accessories & Compatibility
No cables, holders or software are included in the package. The data sheet lists cross-reference compatibility with ER34615, ER34615H, ER34615C, ER34615M, ER32L615, Saft LSH20 and Saft LS33600 models. The cell is not rechargeable; charging attempts are hazardous. Store in a clean, cool, dry, ventilated area not exceeding 30 °C.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum recommended continuous current for the Tadiran TL-2300/S 3.6V D 16.5 Ah Lithium Battery?
The maximum recommended continuous current is 250 mA. Exceeding this limit can reduce capacity and shorten the operational life of the cell.
What are the exact physical dimensions of the Tadiran TL-2300/S D cell for compartment fit?
The battery measures 33 mm in diameter and 61.5 mm in height. It uses a button-top termination style and weighs approximately 92.5 g.
How should the Tadiran TL-2300/S be installed to avoid the common mistake of damaging the seal?
Do not solder directly to the cell body. Use the compatible tabbed versions or a proper battery holder. Soldering heat damages the hermetic seal and electrolyte.
