OUR STORY

From single cells to program supply

18650 Battery Store started with a simple goal: make it easy to buy authentic lithium cells from a knowledgeable, U.S.-based supplier. That goal grew from single 18650 and 21700 orders into commercial sourcing, contract fulfillment and procurement support for engineering teams, Fortune 500 companies and government buyers.

Whether you need one replacement cell, recurring wholesale volume or a supplier for a government contract, the standard is the same: authentic cells, the documents behind them, straight answers and careful handling.

Veteran-owned

An American company that believes execution matters: clear communication, urgency, and the right battery the first time.

In business since 2013

More than a decade of supplying lithium cells to builders, businesses and government buyers.

Ships from Stockbridge, Georgia

Most in-stock orders ship within 1 business day, counted and packed for lithium transport.

Grade A cells from the makers

New, first-quality production cells made by Molicel, Samsung, Panasonic, Sony/Murata, EVE and the other makers we list. Never B-grade, factory seconds, pulls or recycled cells.

QUALITY

Authentic cells, checked before they ship

Lithium cells are a high-risk product category: counterfeit and relabeled cells are common, and the wrong cell can stall a test program or a production line. Quality starts with where our cells come from.

SOURCING: Name-brand cells from established supply channels, not B-grade cells, factory seconds, pulls or recycled cells.
INCOMING INSPECTION: Shipments are checked for product identity, packaging, labeling, wrap and terminal condition before they go on the shelf.
EVERY CELL TESTED: We test capacity and internal resistance in-house on every cell, in every batch.
BATCH AND DATE CODES: Ask for one manufacturer batch and one date code across a build. We fill the order from a single batch where stock allows; if we can’t, your quote says so before anything ships.
MATCHED SETS: Because every cell is measured, we can group the cells for each pack by capacity and internal resistance. Ask for matched sets, and your quote states the tolerance.
PACKED FOR TRANSPORT: Cells are counted, packed for lithium transport and shipped to carrier rules. Freight is arranged for pallet and LTL orders.
