Description
The Energizer CR2016 is a 3V lithium coin cell battery in a 20mm diameter, 1.6mm height format, designed for low-drain devices that require compact, long-lasting power. The battery fits car key fobs, fitness trackers, glucose monitors, heart rate monitors, small remote controls, and watches that accept a CR2016 cell.
Lithium chemistry provides stable voltage output across the battery's lifespan, maintaining consistent performance in devices that need reliable power over months or years of standby use. The CR2016 sits between the thinner CR2012 and the thicker CR2025 in the Energizer coin cell range, giving a balance of capacity and low profile for devices with limited internal space.
This single-pack battery comes in child-resistant blister packaging that meets safety standards for lithium coin cells. The packaging dimensions of 44mm width, 89mm depth and 5mm height make it suitable for counter display or drawer storage. The battery carries a best-before date printed on the packaging, typically several years from manufacture due to lithium's low self-discharge rate.

Frequently Asked
What devices use a CR2016 battery?
The CR2016 is commonly used in car key fobs, fitness trackers, glucose monitors, heart rate monitors, small watches, and compact remote controls. If your device specifies a CR2016, this is the correct size — do not substitute with a CR2025 or CR2032 as they are thicker and may not fit.
How long does a CR2016 battery last?
Lifespan depends on the device's power draw. In a low-drain device like a car key fob used several times a day, a CR2016 typically lasts 2-4 years. In a continuously-powered device like a fitness tracker, expect 6-12 months. Lithium cells have minimal self-discharge, so unused batteries retain charge for several years when stored at room temperature.
Can this battery be recharged?
No. The CR2016 is a primary (non-rechargeable) lithium cell. Attempting to recharge it can cause leakage, rupture or fire. Once depleted, dispose of it according to local battery recycling regulations.
Is the packaging child-resistant?
Yes. The blister pack is designed to meet child-resistant packaging standards for lithium coin cells, reducing the risk of accidental ingestion by young children.
