CR2320 battery
What replaces a CR2320
DL2320, ECR2320, BR2320
3 V lithium (primary), 23 × 2 mm (diameter × height)
The CR2320 is a single-use 3 V lithium (primary) coin cell. The codes below are the same physical cell sold under different manufacturer names, and any of them will fit.
Specification
- IEC designation
- CR2320
- Nominal voltage
- 3 V
- Chemistry
- Lithium (primary)
- Size
- 23 × 2 mm (diameter × height)
- Typical capacity
- 135 mAh
- Rechargeable
- No — never charge it
Codes that mean the same battery
| Code | Fits? |
|---|---|
| DL2320 | Yes — same cell |
| ECR2320 | Yes — same cell |
| BR2320 | Yes — same cell |
Codes that look close but are not
| Code | Why it is not a substitute |
|---|---|
| CR2330 | Same 23 mm diameter, 3.0 mm tall and roughly twice the capacity. Too thick for a CR2320 compartment. |
| CR2032 | Three millimetres narrower. It will rattle in a 23 mm holder and may lose contact. |
The CR2320 is a primary cell and must never be put in a charger. Charging a sealed primary battery builds gas pressure inside a can with no vent designed for it, which is how they rupture or catch fire. Rechargeable look-alikes exist for several sizes and carry different codes — check the code, not the shape.
Where it turns up
- Memory backup in industrial controllers
- Some Citizen and Seiko watch modules
- Sports timing transponders
- Older PDA and organiser backup cells
Common questions
- What is equivalent to a CR2320?
- DL2320, ECR2320, BR2320 — all the same 3 V cell under different manufacturer codes.
- Can I use a CR2330 instead of a CR2320?
- Same 23 mm diameter, 3.0 mm tall and roughly twice the capacity. Too thick for a CR2320 compartment.
- Is the CR2320 rechargeable?
- No. It is a primary cell — charging one risks rupture or fire. Rechargeable look-alikes exist in the same size under different codes.
