Product Description The 4V 0.5Ah Sealed Lead Acid battery is an ultra-compact, maintenance-free power source designed for small-scale portable electronics. Offering 500mAh of capacity, this battery is the standard choice for slim rechargeable LED flashlights, mini emergency lamps, and small handheld electronic testers. Its valve-regulated, spill-proof construction ensures safe operation in any position, providing a rugged and cost-effective alternative to small Ni-Cd packs in compact DIY enclosures.

Key Features

  • Ultra-Compact Footprint: Specifically engineered for "pocket-sized" electronics where space is extremely restricted.

  • Maintenance-Free: Completely sealed design requires no electrolyte top-ups throughout its operational life.

  • Stable 4V Output: Maintains a steady voltage discharge, making it ideal for driving white LEDs (3.0V-3.4V) with high efficiency.

  • Rugged ABS Case: Built to withstand the vibrations and minor impacts common in portable handheld tools.

  • Low Self-Discharge: Retains its charge effectively over months of storage compared to older battery technologies.

Technical Details

  • Dimensions: Approx. 20mm x 22mm x 50mm (Standard 4V 0.5Ah footprint)

  • Standard Charge Current: 50mA (0.1C)

  • Max Charge Voltage: 4.8V

  • Cycle Life: 200–300 Charge/Discharge cycles

  • Operating Temperature: -10°C to +50°C

  • Weight: Approx. 40g to 60g

Prototyping and Engineering Tips from Robogears

  • Precision Charging: To maintain the longevity of this small cell, avoid "fast charging." A constant current of 50mA is the recommended "sweet spot." For a simple DIY charger, use an LM317 regulator circuit set to a limit of 4.6V.

  • LED Efficiency: This battery is perfect for driving 1 to 3 high-brightness 5mm LEDs. Since the battery voltage (4V) is very close to the LED forward voltage (~3.2V), you only need a small $22\Omega$ to $47\Omega$ resistor to limit current, ensuring very little power is wasted as heat.

  • Deep Discharge Warning: Small SLA batteries are sensitive to over-discharge. If the voltage drops below 3.5V, the internal chemistry can begin to degrade. Always charge the battery immediately after use to prevent "sulfation" of the lead plates.

  • Soldering Advice: When soldering wires to the tabs, use a pre-tinned wire and a hot iron. Complete the joint in under 2 seconds to prevent heat from traveling into the plastic casing and compromising the internal seals.
