Battery BL-5C for Nokia

Batteries for Nokia phones have a significant supply of electricity, so even on powerful devices they can work for quite some time between recharges.

The BL 5C is one of the best in this class. The main characteristics of this type of battery, as well as which phones you can install the battery in will be described in detail in this article.

BL 5C battery specifications

The BL 5C battery is a type of lithium-ion device, therefore it has a relatively low weight, practically no memory effect and can be repeatedly (up to 1000 times) charged and discharged, with almost no loss of capacity.

A high resource is provided by a modern controller circuit, which does not allow the battery to be used in inappropriate modes. The distinctive characteristics of this model include the following parameters:

Non-original batteries may vary slightly in capacity (970 - 1050 mAh). There are also analogues that surpass this indicator, but finding batteries of decent quality and with high power values ​​is not so simple.

Are there any analogues of greater power

Each owner of Nokia phones would like to charge the gadget once and use it for a long time. For this purpose, you can try to use analogues of a larger capacity. You can purchase such products in various online stores, such as Aliexpress.

Unfortunately, the quality of such batteries is not always at a high level, but the cost of a battery can be several times lower than when buying an original battery.

For example, products manufactured under the Link Dream brand have an excess of capacity compared to a standard battery by almost 1.5 times. Accordingly, the operating time on a single charge increases. This product has excellent compatibility and is ideally sized.

Buying Li-Ion high-capacity batteries on Chinese trading floors is a lottery, but the risk is more than offset by the low cost. That is, for the price of the original product, you can buy 3 to 4 batteries, the total life of which can significantly exceed the branded battery.

You can make a little safety when purchasing products remotely, if you study the reviews of real customers. Many trading floors have such a function, so it will not be difficult to get up-to-date information about the battery's performance.

The difference between BL-5C and BL-4C, BL-5CB and BL-5CT

BL-5C and BL-4C batteries differ slightly. The sizes of the batteries are almost the same, the difference is only in the thickness of the battery (BL-5C is 1 mm thicker).

If necessary, such products can be considered interchangeable, but the phone owner may encounter the following minor difficulties:

• When installing the BL-4C battery, instead of the "five", you will need to place a flat object of small thickness between the cover and the battery, for example, a piece of cardboard folded into several layers. When replacing it, you will need to make additional efforts, within reasonable limits, to install the battery, while the back cover of the phone will slightly go beyond the dimensions.
• The capacity of the BL-4C is about 200 mAh lower than that of the BL-5C, therefore, with a "down" replacement, the duration of the mobile phone on a single charge will noticeably decrease.

BL-5CB batteries also differ slightly from the BL-5CT models.The main difference is the length, which is 3 mm longer for the BL - 5CB battery, so it is not possible to install this product instead of the "CT", and when replacing it, you will need to put additional elements under the bottom of the battery.

Which phones are installed

The BL-5C battery can be installed in the following Nokia phones:

In addition to the listed phone models, the removable BL 5C battery is used in various portable devices, for example, active audio speakers, radios, as well as in home-made devices where a voltage of 3.7 volts is needed.
