CR2025 vs CR2032

CR2025 and CR2032 share a 20mm diameter and 3V output, but the CR2032 is thicker (3.2mm vs 2.5mm) with more capacity. If your device recess is less than 3.2mm, use a CR2025 — a CR2032 will not close.

What are the CR2025 battery characteristics?

These are the CR2025 performance figures we declare under EU Regulation 2023/1542: rated capacity and the maximum available duration under a standard continuous load. Real discharge performance depends on load, temperature and cut-off voltage, so the exact test conditions are stated underneath the table.

Cross Reference

What batteries are equivalent to the CR2025?

The CR2025 is interchangeable with any cell of the same diameter, thickness and voltage, so an equivalent can be substituted without changing the device. Buyers look these cells up under three numbering systems at once — IEC, ANSI and manufacturer codes — and the list below covers the names the CR2025 is sold under.

Look any number up in the cross-reference tool → — type the marking on your cell and see where it lands, or pick your device and see the cells we supply for it.

CR2025 is a 3.0V lithium manganese dioxide (Li-MnO₂) primary cell: it is not rechargeable and must never be charged. The first table lists the same cell under another standard designation or brand code. The tables after it list cells that fit the same holder without being the same battery — read the family heading before substituting.

Same diameter, different thickness — check the holder before substituting

The 20 mm family shares one diameter and differs only in height, which is what sets capacity and whether the compartment closes and makes contact.

These tables are compiled from manufacturers' own cross-reference documentation. Equivalent numbers mean the cell will fit and operate in the same holder; capacity and discharge curve can still differ between brands and between chemistries, so confirm the specification for the device you are powering. Numbers marked "single source" appear in one manufacturer's documentation only — ask us and we will confirm on a sample.
Applications

Where is the CR2025 battery used?

The CR2025 is used in car key fobs, remote controls, motherboards and other compact devices that draw small currents over long periods. Its 3.0V output and 130mAh ~ 185mAh capacity suit equipment that has to run for months without a battery change. The blocks below set out what to check for each device type.

CR2025 in Car Key Fobs

Most modern car key fobs and remote controls run on a CR2025 coin cell. Nissan, Honda and Toyota remotes commonly use the CR2025 (check the exact cell printed inside before ordering). When the range drops, the fob battery is usually the first thing to change.

CR2025 for Motherboard CMOS

The motherboard CMOS battery keeps your BIOS settings and system clock powered when the PC is off. Many desktop boards and laptops use a CR2025 — a dead cell is the usual cause of a "wrong system time" or lost BIOS settings on boot.

CR2025 for Apple AirTag

The Apple AirTag runs on a removable CR2025 coin cell. To replace it: press and twist the back cover open, swap the old cell for a fresh CR2025, then re-seat the cover. A new CR2025 keeps your AirTag powered and alerts you when it gets low.

FAQ

CR2025 Battery FAQs

What is a CR2025 battery?

CR2025 is a 20mm diameter, 2.5mm thick lithium coin cell with 3.0V output and ~130mAh ~ 185mAh capacity.

What is the CR2025 compatible with?

ECR2025, 5003LC, DL2025 — same size and voltage, interchangeable with CR2025.

What is a CR2025 battery equivalent to?

ECR2025, 5003LC, DL2025 — these are the same 20mm x 2.5mm cell at 3.0V, sold under different manufacturer codes, so they fit and operate in any device that specifies a CR2025. Capacity and discharge curve can still differ between brands and chemistries.

Is the CR2025 rechargeable?

Standard CR2025 is a primary (non-rechargeable) lithium battery.

How long does a CR2025 battery last?

In a low-drain device (watch, CMOS, spare key fob) a CR2025 typically lasts several years; in high-drain use the cycle is shorter.

Does a CR2025 fit my device?

CR2025 fits any device that specifies a CR2025 cell or a listed compatible equivalent (ECR2025, 5003LC, DL2025).

How do I get CR2025 battery wholesale pricing?

Pricing depends on cell grade, quantity and packaging, so quotes are issued per project rather than from a fixed list. Send your quantity, target market and label or packaging requirements, and we return a landed-cost quote together with samples — usually within one working day.
