Annex XIII, point 1 · Public

What anyone sees when they scan the battery

Anyone who scans the QR code on an LMT battery pack reaches point 1 of Annex XIII, with no login and no account: 33 of the 44 data points the Commission numbers under this point apply from 18 February 2027, and 30 of those are mandatory. They are the identity of the manufacturer and of the pack, where and when it was made, its weight, capacity and chemistry, the hazardous substances it contains, the extinguishing agent that works on it, and the critical raw materials above 0,1 % by weight. The grant is Article 77(2)(a), and this point also absorbs Annex VI Part A, the content of the label itself.

Every line is addressable: the reference number in the first column is the Commission’s own numbering, and /data-points/public#dp-1 opens this page on 1 data point 1.

What to do with the list

59 data points, one date, and a lead time in between

Collecting these is a project, and it runs against a date that does not move. The deadline page walks the legal chain article by article, and the price of carrying the list is published rather than quoted.
