What is the battery model for BMW 3 Series key?
1 Answers
The battery model is CR2032. It is a lithium manganese dioxide battery, named according to the IEC standard. Among them: C - indicates a chemical battery system with lithium metal as the negative electrode and manganese dioxide as the positive electrode; R - indicates that the battery is cylindrical in shape, with F replacing it if it is square; 20 - indicates the battery diameter is 20mm; 32 - represents the battery height is 3.2mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, the endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and the rated capacity is around 200mAh. CR2032 typically has a lifespan of 5 years. If the manufacturer's production level is not high or quality control is poor, its lifespan will be significantly shortened. Domestic first-tier brand batteries can generally guarantee this lifespan. If the usage environment is ideal (sealed, room temperature, no moisture interference, etc.), its lifespan can be further extended to 8 years or even 10 years. The usage time of a vehicle remote key battery is closely related to the frequency of use. The more frequently it is used, the shorter its lifespan will be. If the remote key battery is dead, the mechanical key can be used directly to open and start the vehicle. Car remote keys use button batteries, mainly three types: CR2016, CR2025, and CR2032. For the specific model used in each vehicle, owners can refer to the battery model in the user manual for replacement. Button-type CR2016 battery: The usage rate of this battery in car key remotes is very high, making it one of the most common car remote batteries. The battery voltage is 3V, while most car key batteries are powered by 9V, so three batteries need to be replaced each time. Examples include Guangben, Toyota, Volkswagen, Mazda, etc. CR2016 specifications: battery diameter 20mm, thickness 1.6mm. Button-type CR2025 battery: Its usage rate is much lower than CR2016. However, it is still used in some car keys. It is thicker than CR2016 but has a relatively higher storage capacity. CR2025 specifications: battery diameter 20mm, thickness 2.5mm. This type of battery is also commonly used in audio remotes. Button battery CR2032: Its thickness is twice that of CR2016. The 3V-CR2032 lithium manganese battery belongs to the lithium-manganese dioxide structure. The positive electrode material is chemically stable manganese dioxide, the negative electrode material is lithium metal, and the electrolyte is a lithium battery electrolyte. The main components of the electrolyte are dimethoxyethane, propylene carbonate, and lithium perchlorate. Its shape resembles a button, hence it is also called a button lithium battery or lithium manganese button battery.
