Lithium Thionyl Chloride Battery Applications
The extremely long service life and low self-discharge rate of thionyl chloride-lithium cells make them ideal for applications where physical access is limited, such as for remote sensing systems.
Applications include: GPS emergency locators/roadside assistance, wireless security systems (PIR), electronic toll tags, tire tags, animal tracking, asset tracking, law enforcement/security, emergency, utilities and metering, deep hole drilling, medical devices, telecommunications
