Duracell DL1/3N (CR1/3N) 3V Lithium Button Cell Battery - Single Pack

The Duracell DL1/3N is a 3V lithium button cell battery with the CR1/3N designation, supplying power to compact devices including digital cameras, medical instruments, dog training collars, and security key fobs. The lithium chemistry provides higher energy density than alkaline equivalents, delivering consistent voltage throughout the discharge cycle rather than tapering off early.

Designed for devices that draw intermittent or low-to-moderate current, the DL1/3N operates across a temperature range from -20°C to +60°C, maintaining performance in both cold outdoor environments and warm interior spaces. The leak-resistant construction uses a sealed cell design to prevent electrolyte escape, protecting sensitive electronics from corrosion damage during the battery's service life.

The single-cell format measures approximately 11mm diameter by 10.8mm height, fitting devices originally specified for CR1/3N, DL1/3N, 2L76 or CR11108 batteries. Duracell rates the DL1/3N with a shelf life of up to 10 years when stored at room temperature, allowing the battery to be kept as a spare without significant self-discharge. The blister pack holds one battery and includes batch information for traceability.

What devices use the DL1/3N battery?

The DL1/3N powers digital cameras, medical glucose meters, dog training collar transmitters, car key fobs, laser pointers, and some security sensors. Any device marked for CR1/3N, 2L76 or CR11108 batteries will accept this cell.

Is this the same as a CR1/3N?

Yes. DL1/3N is Duracell's product code for the industry-standard CR1/3N lithium cell. Both designations refer to the same 3V lithium battery with identical dimensions and voltage.

How long does the battery last in storage?

Duracell rates the DL1/3N with a 10-year shelf life when stored at room temperature in its original blister pack. Self-discharge is minimal compared to alkaline batteries, making it suitable for emergency spares.

Can it operate in cold weather?

The lithium chemistry allows the DL1/3N to function from -20°C to +60°C. Performance drops slightly at temperature extremes but remains usable in outdoor applications like wildlife cameras or vehicle remotes during winter.
