## EVE ER14250: Specifications and Applications

The EVE ER14250 is a 1/2 AA-size primary lithium battery using lithium thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl2) chemistry. It delivers a nominal voltage of 3.6V and a typical capacity of 1200 mAh (at 0.5 mA discharge to 2.0V at 25°C). The battery is designed for long-term, low-drain applications where reliability and shelf life are critical.

### Key Specifications
- **Chemistry**: Lithium Thionyl Chloride (Li-SOCl2)
- **Nominal Voltage**: 3.6V
- **Capacity**: 1200 mAh (typical)
- **Max Continuous Discharge Current**: 50 mA (at 25°C)
- **Operating Temperature Range**: -55°C to +85°C
- **Self-Discharge Rate**: <1% per year at 25°C
- **Weight**: Approximately 11 g
- **Terminals**: Standard pin or wire leads available

### Common Applications
EVE ER14250 batteries are widely used in:
- Automatic meter reading (AMR) and smart meters
- Wireless sensors and IoT devices
- Asset tracking and GPS locators
- Medical devices (e.g., infusion pumps, monitors)
- Security systems and alarm panels
- Memory backup (RTC, SRAM)

### Buyer Considerations
When sourcing EVE ER14250 batteries, consider the following:

1. **Genuine vs. Counterfeit**: Purchase from authorized distributors or directly from EVE Energy to ensure authentic cells with consistent performance.
2. **Storage Conditions**: Store in a cool, dry place (15-25°C recommended) to maximize shelf life. Avoid exposure to high humidity or extreme temperatures.
3. **Discharge Profile**: The battery is optimized for low continuous drain (<1 mA). For pulses above 50 mA, consult the datasheet or consider a capacitor in parallel.
4. **Safety**: Li-SOCl2 cells are non-rechargeable and must not be short-circuited, over-discharged, or exposed to temperatures above 100°C. Follow local regulations for disposal.
5. **Packaging Options**: Available in bulk trays, tape-and-reel, or custom packaging for automated assembly.

### Comparison with Alternatives
Compared to other 1/2 AA lithium batteries (e.g., Tadiran TL-5104, Saft LS14250), the EVE ER14250 offers competitive pricing and similar performance. Key differentiators include:
- **Capacity**: 1200 mAh vs. typical 1100-1300 mAh for competitors.
- **Temperature Range**: -55°C to +85°C, suitable for harsh environments.
- **Shelf Life**: Up to 10 years at room temperature.

### Procurement Tips
- Request a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for each batch to verify capacity and voltage.
- For high-volume orders, negotiate lead times (typically 4-8 weeks) and consider safety stock.
- Test samples in your specific device under expected load and temperature conditions before mass production.

For detailed technical data, refer to the official EVE ER14250 datasheet available from EVE Energy's website or your distributor.
