This battery does not have a UPC/GTIN code and is registered by the battery supplier on the WERCSmart system for other electronic product suppliers to link to battery information when registering.
Main information requirements: MSDS documents (including model, capacity, weight, voltage, 100% ingredient list, CAS number of each ingredient, form, color, smell, transportation method, and dangerous protection measures, etc.)
