Battery Care Tips
Battery Care Tips
🔹 Getting Started
Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.
🔹 Keep It Healthy
Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.
Delivery and Shipping
Delivery and Shipping
🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

Magnetek 2026A — 9.6V Ni-MH Replacement Battery
This is a 9.6V, 2000mAh Ni-MH battery for the Magnetek 2026A wireless crane remote control transmitter. It fits the handheld unit operators use to control overhead cranes and hoists in industrial environments. Voltage and cell count match the original pack exactly.
- 2026A transmitter fit: The 2026A remote runs on a dedicated 9.6V Ni-MH pack — eight cells in series. That cell count drives the voltage rail the transmitter's logic board expects. Drop in a pack with fewer cells and the radio module won't initialise correctly.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this pack through full charge and discharge cycles and confirmed the BMS held voltage through repeated solenoid-activation signals. No dropout occurred during high-current command bursts.
- Infrequent-use storage charge: If the 2026A remote sits unused for weeks, charge the battery once a month regardless. Ni-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day. A pack left for two months can drop low enough that the transmitter refuses to power on — not a dead battery, just a deeply discharged one.
Solenoid activation causing power dropout on the 2026A
When an operator commands a hoist movement, the transmitter fires a burst of RF and triggers a relay or solenoid in the crane panel. That activation spike draws more current from the battery in a short window than normal standby operation. A partially discharged Ni-MH pack can sag below the transmitter's minimum operating voltage during that spike, causing the remote to cut out mid-command. A full charge before any lift operation keeps the cell voltage high enough to handle the inrush without dropout.
Remote showing low battery immediately after installing a new pack
A fresh battery shipped at storage voltage — typically around 8.5–9.0V for a 9.6V Ni-MH pack — will trigger the low-battery indicator on the 2026A right away. This is not a faulty battery. The transmitter's voltage threshold for "low battery" sits close to 9.0V, and a pack at storage state sits right at that edge. Connect the pack to the charger for a full cycle before first use. Once the cells reach 9.6V, the indicator clears.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 2026A remote won't power on at all after sitting in the equipment room for three months — is the battery dead?
Not necessarily dead — just deeply discharged from self-discharge over that idle period. Ni-MH cells lose 1–2% of charge per day, so three months unused can drop the pack well below the transmitter's minimum startup voltage. Connect the battery to the charger and leave it for at least 30–45 minutes before attempting to power the remote. Once the pack climbs back above 9.0V, the transmitter should initialise normally.
The crane remote cuts out exactly when I press a movement command, then comes back a second later — what's causing that?
That dropout pattern is voltage sag under the current spike of a solenoid or relay activation. The transmitter pulls a sharp burst of current when it fires a command signal, and a partially depleted Ni-MH pack can't hold voltage through that inrush — it dips below the logic board's cutoff for a moment. The fix is straightforward: start every shift with a fully charged pack at 9.6V, and the cell voltage will stay high enough to absorb the activation spike without cutting out.
E-stop response on the crane feels slower than it should — could the battery be the cause?
Yes — E-stop signal transmission is voltage-dependent on the 2026A. A low pack increases transmission latency between the remote and the crane panel receiver, which can add a noticeable delay to safety-critical commands. This is not acceptable in a live lifting environment. Charge the battery to full (9.6V) before any safety-critical operation, and check pack voltage at the start of each shift with a multimeter to confirm it hasn't drifted below 9.2V.
