CR2430 equivalents

Direct replacements

The same cell under another code. Any of these fits, whatever the brand.

  • 5011LC
  • DL2430
  • ECR2430

Similar size, check the fit

Same diameter, different thickness. These are not drop-in replacements.

Cell Size Verdict
CR2412 24.5 × 1.2 mm Same 24.5 mm diameter, but 1.2 mm tall instead of 3 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.
CR2450 24.5 × 5 mm Same 24.5 mm diameter, but 5 mm tall instead of 3 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.
CR2477 24.5 × 7.7 mm Same 24.5 mm diameter, but 7.7 mm tall instead of 3 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.

Do not use

These are the same size or a similar code, and they are not equivalents.

  • LIR2430

    Rechargeable Li-ion: 3.6-4.2 V and far less capacity; only for devices built for it.
