Tadiran TL-5104/S 3.6V AA Lithium Battery
The Tadiran TL-5104/S is a 3.6 volt AA lithium thionyl chloride cell rated at 2.1 Ah. It is built for industrial and utility devices that need a stable, high operating voltage over a long service life. The button-top termination suits equipment designed for this form factor. It is not rechargeable and must not be placed in a charger.
Capacity and operating limits
The 2.1 Ah capacity supports low-current applications such as remote sensors, meters and memory-backup circuits for extended periods. A shelf life beyond 10 years with under 1% annual self-discharge at 20°C keeps spares ready. The cell operates from -60°C to +85°C, but capacity falls at the temperature extremes and under high pulse loads. It is unsuitable for devices that draw continuous high current or require a rechargeable chemistry.
Compatibility and handling
The battery cross-references to models including the Saft LS-14500, Sonnenschein SL-360/S and Xeno XL-060F, simplifying sourcing for existing designs. The non-flammable, non-pressurised electrolyte improves safety in humid environments, though the chemistry is corrosive if the case is breached. Store in a clean, dry, ventilated area not exceeding 30°C to preserve the rated shelf life.

Questions about this item
Will the 14.5 mm diameter and button top fit the same AA slot that currently holds a Saft LS-14500?
Yes, the TL-5104/S shares the AA form factor with a 14.5 mm diameter and button-top termination, so it fits the same slot as the Saft LS-14500.
How can I verify the 3.6 V output is stable after installation?
Measure the open-circuit voltage with a multimeter; a fresh cell should read close to 3.6 V and remain steady under load thanks to the lithium thionyl chloride chemistry.
Does the box include any holder, wires or connector, or is it just the bare cell?
Only the single 3.6 V 2.1 Ah AA lithium cell is supplied; holders, leads or connectors must be purchased separately.
