The latest Nitecore NL2160 21700 round batteries have made their debut, offering a significant capacity of 6000 mAh combined with 21.6 watt-hours of power. These batteries have sparked interest among tech enthusiasts and are now available through German retailers for those looking to upgrade their devices’ power sources.
Offering a more robust solution for powering devices, Nitecore presents two models of these high-capacity batteries: the NL2160 and the NL2160HP. The former can handle currents up to 8 amps, while the HP version caters to more demanding devices with a threshold of 20 amps, albeit at a slightly higher price point.
The innovative 21700 batteries were initially used in the Nitecore EDC35 flashlight, although it is unclear which model of the battery is embedded within. This introduction represents an upgrade in terms of capacity, offering around 20% more than the standard 21700 batteries rated at 18-watt hours (5000 mAh, 3.6 V). Nitecore even provides an intermediate option with a little extra capacity at 5300 mAh.
With an eye towards sustainability, Nitecore guarantees a minimum of 500 charging cycles for its new batteries. However, they have yet to disclose any potential decrease in capacity over time. Consumers should be aware that these new entries are not universally compatible with all 21700 sockets, including some within Nitecore’s own line, such as the P series flashlights.
Before making a purchase, customers should ensure compatibility with their devices. As for pricing, the NL2160 is currently marketed at around EUR 29 (approximately $32), whereas the higher-performing NL2160HP is on offer for EUR 34 (about $37).
The introduction of these high-capacity batteries could prove to be a game-changer for users of compatible devices, offering extended use and reliable power. Interested parties are advised to check compatibility and credentials to make an informed purchase.
