18650 DIY Battery Holder – Four Slot

Prototyping fresh new projects is always fun, bringing together numerous Modules, components, wiring and other bits ‘n’ bobs to create tiny systems with specific and tailored functionality. However, when choosing how to power your projects, the sheer number of different options can be overwhelming, but this isn’t a bad thing, as having many options available allows for a more diverse design, which can of course be changed as you prototype your way through it, and nowadays we have easy access to all kinds of different power sourcing solutions, ensuring that we can always get the exact parts we need, whether we’re powering our projects directly from a wall outlet, or via the use of Batteries in their various shapes and sizes.

These 18650 DIY Battery Holders are fantastic little tools for creating custom electronics projects, and feature Four Slots for 18650 Batteries with simple solderable tabs on each side to easily integrate the battery holder into your projects. Lithium Ion 18650 batteries are perfect power solutions for high-power consumption rates when compared to average AA batteries. But these Li-Ion batteries require special consideratins. This battery holder is quite unique in the fact that it doesn’t come prewired, and is quite bare-bones with an open-plan design, making it compact even when compared to similar Battery Holders. The metal plates that hold the batteries in place within the slot are bent in order to provide a secure holding force for the inserted battery, while extending out each at the end of each battery so that you can either solder them directly onto PCB pads, or solder wiring or connectors onto the ends.

DIY style battery holders like these Four Slot 18650 Battery Holders allow for truly diverse designing, allowing you to integrate this battery holder into your project in a few different ways, while the compact size and simple design makes it easy to fit into tight enclosures or even onto the tops of boards without taking up too much unnecessary space. Furthermore, because these holders don’t come wired, and simple feature tabs on the edges, they can also be configured for both series or parallel, and can even be used to power two different projects with two different batteries. This is the true beauty of DIY design, as you can tailor your project to exact specifications, catering to whatever your project might need, whether it’s high voltage, a large capacity, or even powering multiple parts individually.

If you’re looking for similar types of holders, but with a single 18650 battery slot, check out the 18650 DIY Dual Slot Battery Holder, which offers a similar style, but with two slots for double the voltage or capacity.
