Hazards Identification (Section 2)

The cell is not dangerous under normal use conditions. The hazards described apply only in the event of a ruptured or misused battery:

  • Skin contact: Electrolyte leakage may cause irritation and soreness.
  • Eye contact: Electrolyte vapors may cause eye inflammation. Rinse immediately with water.
  • Inhalation: Vapors from a ruptured cell may cause respiratory irritation.
  • Ingestion: Electrolyte ingestion can cause tissue damage to the throat.
  • Environmental: Electrolyte leakage may contaminate soil and water. Do not allow entry into drains.
  • Fire/explosion: Do not dispose of in fire; do not short-circuit.

Handling and Storage (Section 7)

  • Do not crush, pierce, directly heat, or solder the battery.
  • Do not throw into fire or mix different battery types or new and used batteries.
  • Store in a cool, ventilated area away from heat sources, open flames, and corrosive chemicals.
  • Keep batteries in original packaging until use to prevent short circuits.
  • Keep away from children.

First Aid Measures (Section 4)

  • Skin: Remove contaminated clothing; flush with soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical aid.
  • Eyes: Rinse immediately with plenty of water; remove contact lenses before rinsing. Do not rub eyes. Seek medical aid.
  • Inhalation: Move to fresh air; administer oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. Seek medical aid.
  • Ingestion: Dilute with plenty of water. Seek medical aid immediately. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Fire-Fighting Measures (Section 5)

The cell is non-flammable under normal conditions but may leak combustible electrolyte fumes if overheated. Suitable extinguishing agents include carbon dioxide, dry chemical, and foam. Firefighters must wear full-face filter masks or self-contained breathing apparatus and fire- and toxic-gas-resistant protective clothing and gloves. Extinguish fires from the windward side where possible.

Standards & Compliance

This Material Safety Data Sheet has been prepared in accordance with international standards governing the safety classification, documentation, and transport of lithium ion cells and batteries. The document supports compliance with the following frameworks:

  • UN38.3 — United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, Section 38.3: Test requirements for lithium metal and lithium ion batteries.
  • IEC Standards — International Electrotechnical Commission standards applicable to rechargeable lithium cell safety and performance.
  • ISO Guidelines — Relevant ISO safety data sheet preparation standards.
  • REACH — Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals regulation; chemical composition disclosures in Section 3 of this MSDS align with REACH substance identification requirements.
  • RoHS — Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive considerations for the cell’s material composition.

The MSDS itself follows the globally harmonized structure of 16 sections (GHS/SDS format), covering chemical identification, hazard classification, composition, first aid, fire-fighting, accidental release, handling, storage, exposure controls, physical and chemical properties, stability, toxicology, ecological information, disposal, transport, and regulatory information.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the UN38.3 MSDS reference number for the lithium cell used in the ETENWOLF CL5?
The Material Safety Data Sheet reference number is WTH26D02036337B, issued by Waltek Testing Group Co., Ltd. on 2026-02-09. It covers the INR21700-50ME rechargeable lithium ion cell (3.6V, 4900mAh, 17.64Wh) used in the ETENWOLF CL5 Rechargeable Camping Lantern.
Is the INR21700-50ME lithium cell in the CL5 lantern dangerous under normal use?
No. The cell is classified as not dangerous under normal use conditions. The hazards described in the MSDS apply only if the cell is ruptured, dismantled, short-circuited, or improperly exposed to heat or fire. Under normal operating conditions the sealed metal casing is designed to withstand expected temperatures and pressures.
What should I do if the battery cell in the CL5 leaks or ruptures?
Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. If skin contact occurs, flush with soap and water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention. If electrolyte contacts eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical aid. Move to fresh air if vapors are inhaled. Do not allow leaked electrolyte to enter drains, soil, or waterways. Use rubber gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing when handling a leaking cell.
How should the lithium cell or the CL5 lantern be stored safely?
Store the ETENWOLF CL5 and its lithium cell in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources, open flames, and corrosive chemicals. Keep away from children. Do not mix with different battery types or used batteries. Keep in original packaging until use to prevent accidental short circuits.
