Schneider SC110 Replacement Battery 6V 2100mAh Ni-MH

Schneider SC110 — 6V Ni-MH Replacement Battery

This 6V 2100mAh (12.6Wh) Ni-MH cell is a direct replacement for the Schneider SC110 digital camera. It slots into the same battery compartment as the original and powers the camera's imaging, processing, and display functions. If your original cell is no longer holding a charge, this replaces it without any hardware modifications.

• SC110 platform fit: The SC110 uses a specific 6V Ni-MH cell tied to the camera's voltage rail and connector format. Swapping to the correct voltage matters — feeding the wrong voltage into a camera body can corrupt the BMS read or prevent power-on entirely.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on camera-class equipment. The BMS accepted the cell on the first charge cycle via an OEM-compatible charger, and the battery-remaining indicator stabilised after one full cycle.
• Flash capacitor tip for the SC110: If you use the built-in flash heavily, charge the battery fully inside the camera body or OEM charger before your first shoot. Flash capacitor recharge draws sharp current spikes — a partially initialised cell can show early voltage sag under that load before the BMS has mapped the cell's discharge curve.

The SC110's battery indicator maps voltage thresholds to percentage or bar segments. A new Ni-MH cell has a slightly different discharge curve than a well-used original, so the camera may misread the state of charge on first install. The indicator can show empty or flash a low-battery warning even when the cell has capacity remaining. One full charge cycle — completed inside the camera body or with an OEM-compatible charger — recalibrates this mapping and brings the display in line with actual charge.

Battery percentage jumping erratically during a shoot

This happens when the camera's voltage-threshold table doesn't yet match the new cell's discharge profile. Ni-MH cells have a relatively flat discharge curve, and some camera firmware reads that flat region inconsistently before it has baseline data from a full cycle. The fix is not a fault with the cell itself. Run one complete charge-to-empty cycle, then recharge fully — after that, the indicator should track steadily from 100% down through the actual discharge curve. Check that resting voltage at full charge reads at or above 6V before the second shoot.
