CATL 50Ah 3.7V Grade A NCM Prismatic Battery Cell – High Power 3C Discharge – Lightweight Lithium Ternary for Electric Motorcycles & Racing Karts

CATL 50Ah NCM Cell: High Energy, Low Weight The CATL 50Ah is a premium Lithium Ternary (NCM) prismatic battery. Unlike LiFePO4, its cathode is composed of a precise blend of Nickel, Cobalt, and Manganese. This advanced chemistry delivers a higher nominal voltage (3.65V-3.7V) and significantly greater energy density, making it the preferred choice for applications where weight and space are critical constraints.

🚀 Key Advantages of NCM Chemistry

  • Superior Energy Density: At only 0.86kg, this 50Ah cell packs more power per kilogram than standard LFP cells, effectively reducing the total weight of your vehicle or device.

  • High Power Output: Capable of a 3C (150A) continuous discharge and higher peak currents, providing excellent acceleration for electric motorcycles and racing karts.

  • Cold Weather Performance: NCM batteries generally perform better than LFP in low-temperature charging and discharging scenarios, ensuring reliability in harsh climates.

  • Grade A Quality: DLCPO supplies 100% brand new cells with original QR codes, ensuring consistent capacity and an ultra-low internal resistance of ≤ 0.8 mΩ.


🤝 Why Partner with DLCPO?

  • Precision Technical Matching: High-performance NCM packs require impeccable balance. We categorize and match all cells by voltage and internal resistance before shipping to ensure your battery pack is balanced and safe from day one.

  • 🎯 Certified Authenticity: We guarantee brand new Grade A cells with intact factory QR codes. No Grade B or recycled cells are ever supplied for your high-value projects.

  • 🌐 Global Dangerous Goods Logistics: Shipping high-energy NCM batteries requires strict compliance. DLCPO specializes in DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping to the USA, Europe, and Brazil, managing all UN3480 regulations and customs for you.

❓ Q:Can I mix this 50Ah NCM cell with LiFePO4 cells?
💡 A:

No. NCM (3.7V) and LiFePO4 (3.2V) have different voltage curves and charging requirements. They cannot be mixed in the same system as it would require a completely different BMS and charger.

💡 A:

Yes, it is excellent for high-performance 72V systems. You would need 20 cells in series (20S) to achieve a 72V nominal / 84V max battery pack, which is a standard configuration for high-performance electric motorcycles.

💡 A:

Yes, we include high-conductivity busbars and nuts with every purchase. Since these cells are often used in compact, custom packs, please let us know your configuration so we can recommend the correct busbar size for your build.

Applications

  1. Electric Motorcycles & Scooters: High voltage (72V/96V) packs can be built with fewer cells compared to LFP.
  2. UAVs & Drones: Lightweight (0.86kg) design significantly extends flight time.
  3. Performance EVs: Supports 150A continuous discharge for rapid acceleration.
  4. Power Tools: Provides the high current bursts needed for industrial cordless tools.

Warnings & Cautions

Important: NCM batteries are sensitive to over-charging and over-discharging.

  1. Strictly limit charge voltage to 4.2V and discharge cut-off to 2.75V.
  2. A high-quality BMS is mandatory to prevent thermal runaway.
  3. Do not puncture or expose to extreme heat.
