*After charging at 0.1It for 16 hours, discharging at 0.2It.**For reference only.

Battery performance and cycle life are strongly affected by how they are used. In order to maximize battery safety, please consult Panasonic when determining charge / discharge specs, warning label contents and unit design.

Note: [It] was previously expressed as [C]. [It] is an IEC standard expression for the amount of charge or discharge current and is expressed as: It(A) = Cn (Ah)/1h.

[It] is the reference test current in ampres

[Cn] is the rated capacity of the cell or battery in Ampere-hours. n = the time base [hours] for which the rated capacity is declared
