As the whole world moves towards 5G network construction, the applications of the Internet of Things (IoT) will also develop more vigorously. The problem that many IoT devices must face lies in how to operate stably and for a long time, in which batteries play a key role. This article will show you Procell® batteries for IoT applications, which can improve the service life and reliability of IoT devices.
Professional batteries provide stable power sources for IoT devices
In this fast-growing Internet age, the IoT and smart devices used in various industries require higher and higher connectivity, more functions, and higher interconnection. These devices supporting 5G/WiFi/Bluetooth connections will bring higher loads to batteries when discharging, and require more powerful batteries and rapid and more powerful output.
At present, there are quite a variety of IoT applications. Depending on different application requirements, the demand for batteries will also vary. For example, some devices that need frequent data transmission, such as smart medical devices and remote controllers, need high-capacity batteries. Some devices that only exchange signals within a special time and distance, such as smart home control centers and smart alarms, need batteries for high drain device. For some applications that require a small size and portability, such as activity trackers and smart clothes, batteries with a compact design are required. In some applications requiring excellent high/low temperature performance, such as key-fob and trackers, tire pressure measurement systems, etc, batteries supporting wide operating temperatures are required.
The labor and time costs of replacing batteries are often ignored
IoT devices have promoted new battery development trends. When designing products, enterprises must choose the correct power supply and find a battery type suitable for these devices, so as to improve the service life and reliability of the devices, thus providing consistent device performance, which is of vital importance to the corporate brand.
In fact, battery replacement has become an important cost factor for enterprises, because in addition to the cost of purchasing batteries, enterprises also need to pay higher labor costs to replace batteries, which is also a cost factor that enterprises often ignore. For professional end users, improving the profitability of their business is the most important thing, rather than consuming labor and time on replacing batteries.
Professional batteries offer higher quality and reliable performance
In order to meet various professional needs of IoT devices, Procell® provides the world's first professional battery for IoT.

Various product lines meet the needs of different applications
Procell® offers a variety of product lines to meet different application requirements. A Procell® alkaline battery has a nominal voltage of 1.5V, is economical and affordable. A unique dual product combination (alkaline battery and alkaline intense power battery) introduced for special devices is a universal battery suitable for general devices and high capacity devices. A Procell® high power lithium battery has a nominal voltage of 3V. Using high-energy-density materials, it provides higher capacity and has the characteristics of light weight, wide working temperature range and the like, very suitable for high drain devices. A Procell® lithium coin cell battery has a nominal voltage of 3V. Using high-energy-density materials, it is very suitable for compact devices, and has Procell's unique protection function for child safety.
With high-quality battery design and manufacturing technology, Procell's professional batteries ensure excellent quality battery structure. The batteries have been tested to ensure excellent quality and reliable performance, and environmental testing has also been carried out to ensure reliable and lasting use experience. Procell® professional batteries follow Procell's strict battery standards in design, safety, manufacturing and qualification, including part of ANSI and IEC battery standards.
Alkaline batteries are suitable for providing power to general devices
Procell® alkaline batteries consist of two major product lines, namely Procell® alkaline batteries and Procell® alkaline intense power batteries.
Procell® alkaline batteries are a general-purpose battery suitable for providing power for general-purpose devices. Available in standard AA and 1.5V specifications, it is very suitable for providing power for medium and low drain specialized devices, such as smoke/carbon monoxide detectors, safety keyboards, remote controllers, wireless mice, keyboards, motion sensors and flush meters. AAA, C, D, and 9V specifications are also available.
Procell® alkaline intense power batteries are designed to provide durable performance for high-drain specialized devices. Available in standard AA and 1.5 V specifications, they are specially designed to provide durable power for high-drain specialized devices requiring a large amount of power or power peaks, such as electronic door locks, soap dispensers or security cameras, and C and D specifications are also available.
Procell® alkaline battery/alkaline intense power batteries are designed to operate at temperatures of -20℃ to 54℃.
High-power lithium batteries are suitable for specialized devices with high energy consumption
Procell® high power lithium batteries are designed to provide reliable and safe power supply for specialized devices. Procell® high power lithium industrial batteries are intended to provide a reliable and safe power supply for specialized devices that will discharge electricity at high speed under intermittent or continuous drain (e.g. safety devices). Procell® high power lithium batteries are available in 123 and CR2 specifications, and are recommended for high drain specialized devices, such as electronic door locks, motion sensors, etc.
Procell® high power lithium batteries provides high-energy-density (3V) for a flat power supply and low self-discharge and are available in economical packaging, with high resistance to extreme temperatures from-20℃ to 60℃.
Lithium coin cell batteries provide a reliable and safe power supply for compact devices
Procell® lithium coin cell batteries can be used for compact specialized electronic devices. They are designed to provide a reliable and safe power supply for specialized devices and are currently available in 2016, 2032, and 2025 specifications. The product offers high-energy-density (3V) for a flat power supply and low self-discharge, is available in economical packaging, i.e. tamper-proof packaging with double blister covers, together with child safety package that cannot be opened without scissors. They are recommended for general-purpose specialized devices, such as smoke detectors, remote controls, blood glucose meters, motion sensors, two-way radio, etc, and operate at temperatures from -20℃ to 60℃.
Conclusion
Most electronic devices directly use standard batteries sold on the market, however these batteries are not professionally designed for IoT devices, resulting in poor service life and stability of products and causing users to have a negative impression on the quality of the devices. Users must also consume extra labor and time in order to replace batteries frequently. Procell® professional batteries are designed for IoT devices, which can provide a long service life and stable device performance and are worthy of adoption by brand equipment manufacturers and enterprises.
