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.

Velocity MLP385085-2S — 7.4V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery
This is a 7.4V, 1600mAh Li-Polymer replacement battery carrying OEM part number MLP385085-2S. It fits compatible e-reader and e-book devices that originally shipped with this cell. At 112.50 x 95.00 x 4.50mm, the physical footprint matches the original bay dimensions.
- E-reader cell format: Thin Li-Polymer cells like this one suit e-ink devices because the flat pouch construction fits the shallow battery bay without the rigid casing a cylindrical cell requires. The 7.4V nominal voltage matches the power rail these boards expect.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran charge and discharge cycles through the cell and monitored BMS cutoff behaviour at both ends of the voltage range. The protection circuit tripped correctly at the low-voltage threshold, preventing damage to the cell during a full drain.
- First charge after installation: E-reader firmware reads the battery percentage from a fuel gauge that recalibrates to the new cell during the first full charge cycle. Connect via USB immediately after installation and charge without interruption to the end of the cycle before powering on.
Why e-readers show wildly incorrect battery percentage after a cell swap
E-ink devices track battery state through a firmware fuel gauge that builds its reference model over time. When you swap the cell, the stored model no longer matches the new cell's actual charge curve. The percentage display will jump around — sometimes showing 100%, sometimes dropping to 20% within minutes — until the firmware recalibrates. One full charge-to-discharge-to-full cycle usually resets the gauge to an accurate reading.
E-reader not powering on at all after fitting the new battery
Li-Polymer cells ship in storage mode, typically around 3.7V per cell — enough to protect the chemistry in transit but below the minimum boot voltage most e-reader boards require. The device will not turn on until the cell reaches its operational threshold. Connect the USB cable to a wall adapter, not a PC port, and leave it for at least 10 minutes before pressing the power button. The charge indicator light or on-screen animation should appear before the device boots.

Frequently Asked Questions
My e-reader powers on but drops from full battery to low battery warning within an hour of installing this cell — is it faulty?
This is a storage voltage issue, not a faulty cell. The battery ships at a reduced state of charge, and the firmware fuel gauge is not yet calibrated to the new cell. Charge it fully via a wall adapter before using it. After one complete charge cycle, the percentage display will stabilise.
Page turns are noticeably slower after fitting the replacement battery — what's causing it?
E-ink displays draw a short burst of higher current each time the screen refreshes. When cell voltage is low or the fuel gauge is still recalibrating, the board throttles non-critical operations to protect the power rail — and screen refresh is one of them. Charge the battery fully and run one complete cycle. If the response is still sluggish after that, check that the battery connector is seated flush with no gap at the contact points.
WiFi is draining this battery much faster than reading-only use — is something wrong with the cell?
Nothing is wrong. WiFi radio draw is significantly higher than the near-zero current an e-ink display consumes between page turns. An e-reader in WiFi sync mode can draw several times more current than one being read offline. Disable WiFi when not syncing new content and let it connect on demand rather than staying on continuously — this is the single most effective way to extend charge between sessions.
