18650 Li-ion Battery Holder - 2 Slots

2-Slot 18650 Battery Holder with Wire Leads

Step up the power for your hardware projects with the 2-Slot 18650 Battery Holder. Designed to hold two standard 18650 lithium-ion cells in series, this holder instantly provides a robust 7.4V nominal power source. It is the perfect upgrade when a single battery just isn't enough to drive your motors, power your development boards, or run your custom robotics.

Key Features

1. Boosted Voltage Output: By connecting two 18650 batteries in series, this holder delivers between 7.4V (nominal) and 8.4V (fully charged), providing the ideal voltage range to power Arduino boards via the VIN pin or drive heavier loads like DC motors.
2. Ready-to-Use Wire Leads: Comes fully equipped with pre-stripped and color-coded wire leads (Red for positive, Black for negative), allowing you to immediately solder them to your PCB, attach them to a motor driver, or plug them into a breadboard.
3. Reliable Spring Contacts: Features heavy-duty, nickel-plated steel springs that maintain strong, constant pressure on the battery terminals, preventing power disconnects even if your robotic chassis hits a bump.
4. Rugged Construction: Molded from thick, impact-resistant ABS plastic to protect your batteries and withstand the rigors of rapid prototyping, maker fairs, and field testing.
5. Easy Mounting: The flat bottom features pre-drilled screw holes, making it incredibly easy to permanently mount the battery pack to a robot chassis, wooden base, or custom 3D-printed enclosure.
