Key Features
- Constant 1.5V Output: Holds a true 1.5V throughout its discharge cycle — no gradual voltage drop like standard NiMH rechargeables — so your devices always get the power they expect.
- High Energy Capacity: 2700mAh / 4300mWh per cell with 1200+ rated cycles means fewer purchases and more charges from a single set of batteries over their lifetime.
- Gradual Linear Discharge Profile: Behaves like an alkaline battery on the way down — your device's battery meter stays accurate and you get a real warning before the power runs out.
- Built-In Protection with LED Indicator: The onboard protection circuit keeps things safe, and the LED tells you exactly what's happening — flashing while charging, solid when it's done.
- USB-Rechargeable via 5V Input: Charges from any standard 5V USB source with a compatible XTAR charger — no proprietary wall adapters required.
Overview
If you have been frustrated with NiMH rechargeables that start weak and get weaker, the XTAR CLR 4300 is worth the switch. These AA lithium-ion cells maintain a constant 1.5V output throughout their discharge cycle, so trail cameras trigger faster, flashes recycle quicker, and devices that warn you about "low batteries" actually give you accurate information. At 2700mAh / 4300mWh per cell and a 1200+ cycle rating, a single set of four can replace hundreds of disposable alkaline AA batteries over their lifetime. The built-in protection circuit and LED indicator take the guesswork out of charging — flash means it's working, solid means it's done. Charged via standard 5V USB input at 0.45A using a compatible XTAR 1.5V li-ion charger, these cells work across an operating range of -20°C to 60°C, making them a practical choice for outdoor and field use. This listing includes four batteries.
Applications / Uses
- Trail cameras and wildlife cameras where stable high voltage means better trigger response and longer field life
- Smart locks, blink cameras, and home security devices that drain batteries quickly through constant standby current
- Digital cameras, VR controllers, and high-drain electronics that perform noticeably better at full 1.5V
- Camping lanterns, grooming devices, and home medical equipment used regularly and recharged between uses
- Any AA-powered device where you want rechargeable convenience without sacrificing voltage performance

⚠ Important Safety Warnings
Improper handling or misuse of this lithium-ion battery can result in FIRE, EXPLOSION, or THERMAL RUNAWAY, causing personal injury, property damage, or death. Users must read and follow all safety guidelines before purchase and use. Click here to review the full safety guidelines.
- Critical Warning: Never carry loose batteries in your pocket, purse, or bag. Loose batteries can come into contact with metal objects like keys or coins, causing a short circuit, which may result in severe burns, fire, or explosion. Always store or transport batteries in a protective case or box.
- Intended Use: This battery is designed for integration into protected battery packs with a Battery Management System (BMS) or Protection Circuit Board (PCB). It is not intended for standalone use or use in devices such as e-cigarettes or vaporizers.
-
What is Thermal Runaway?
- A dangerous chain reaction where heat generated by a failing battery causes it to overheat further, potentially leading to fire or explosion.
- Causes: Overcharging, short circuits, physical damage, or exposure to high temperatures.
- Prevention: Use a smart charger, avoid physical damage, and store batteries in a cool, dry place.
- Storage & Transport: Always store batteries in protective cases or boxes to prevent accidental contact with metal objects. Never store loose batteries in pockets, purses, bags, or near conductive materials.
- Inspection: Do not use if the PVC wrapper, terminal insulator, or casing is damaged, dented, leaking, or bulging. These are signs of internal damage or instability, and continued use could result in failure, fire, or explosion.
- Charging: Use a smart charger designed specifically for lithium-ion batteries and ensure that the charger's voltage matches the battery's specifications. Never overcharge, over-discharge, or leave unattended while charging.
- Prohibited Activities: Do not short circuit, modify, puncture, crush, expose to liquids, or solder directly onto the battery (spot weld only).
- Emergency Response: If a cell shows signs of thermal runaway (smoke, swelling, hissing, or heat), stop use immediately and, if it can be done safely, move it to a non-flammable surface (e.g., concrete or sand) away from combustibles. Lithium-ion cell fires are Class B fires — use an ABC/dry-chemical extinguisher, or douse with large amounts of water to cool the cell and prevent spread. Do not rely on a small spray; thorough cooling is required, and cells can reignite from residual heat, so monitor the area afterward. (Class D extinguishers are for lithium-metal batteries, not lithium-ion.) For any fire beyond a single small cell, evacuate and call emergency services.
