This "snap dragon" holder is a hybrid that combines an open frame holder's low cost with reliability that is higher than regular coin cell battery holders. The ultra light weight plastic base has a mating clear plastic cover that the battery is installed in, before being attached to the base. It is particularly suitable for automotive, hand-held consumer products, and industrial equipment.

• A whole new category of lithium coin cell battery holders.
• The US patent office has issued a patent pending for this new family of products.
• First released products are for CR2032 batteries, one of the most popular batteries in the world.
• CR2032 cells typically offer about 220mAh of power and are perfect for circuits with low power requirements.
• Both surface mounting and PC pin applications are available for delivery.
• Contacts are made of nickel-plated phosphor bronze and covered with gold flash for corrosion resistance and easy solderability.
• Offering features like dual-pressure contact points that have low electrical resistance and keep a tight connection with the lithium cell.
• The battery is easily changed without tools or instructions due to the intuitive design.
• Up to 2 meter falls without battery ejection and meet high shock & vibration requirements.
• BHSD-2032-SM, battery holder is mounted and processed through re-flow.
• A battery is installed in BHSD-2032-cover and snapped onto the BHSD-2032-SM, locking in place.
• P/N's BHSD-2032-SM, BHSD-2032-PC and BHSD-2032-cover.
• Same PCB pad spacing as BU2032SM-JJ-G and competing products.
• Eliminates the need for battery removal strap and associated costs, parts & labor.
• Eliminates the cost for dense foam above the battery and associated costs, parts & labor.
• Lower profile than BU2032SM-JJ-G and competing products.
• Patent pending: BHSD-2032-SM with volume discounts is available and delivery is normally from distributor stock or after a short waiting period.
