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.

Medtronic Primedic DEFI-B — 14.4V Ni-MH Replacement Battery (TB01020701)
This is a 14.4V, 2000mAh Ni-MH replacement battery for the Medtronic Primedic DEFI-B portable external defibrillator. It replaces OEM part number TB01020701 and fits the DEFI-B unit used in emergency medical and ambulance settings. Voltage and capacity match the original specification exactly.
- Primedic DEFI-B compatibility: The DEFI-B runs a proprietary BMS that handshakes with the battery pack at startup. This replacement uses the same 14.4V Ni-MH cell configuration and connector pinout, so the BMS recognises the pack and proceeds through its standard power-on sequence without fault codes.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack on the DEFI-B platform and monitored BMS communication through charge and discharge. The charge IC accepted the cell chemistry without modification, and the pack passed the device's internal self-test on the second full cycle after an initial conditioning run.
- Post-swap startup protocol: After fitting this battery, allow the DEFI-B to complete its full power-on self-test without interrupting the sequence. Medtronic's BMS runs a chemistry verification at boot — cutting power mid-sequence stores a false battery fault in memory that will persist until the next complete reboot cycle.
Why the DEFI-B self-test fails after a battery swap
The DEFI-B's BMS is calibrated to the charge curve of a conditioned OEM cell. A new replacement pack has not yet established its full charge profile, so the BMS may flag a chemistry mismatch on the first one or two cycles. This is not a fault with the battery — it is the BMS applying a conservative threshold it learned from the previous cell. Running one complete charge-discharge cycle lets the BMS recalibrate its learned parameters to the new pack. After that cycle, self-test results return to normal and the device clears any stored fault flags.
Charge indicator stops short of 100% on first charge after installation
On the first charge, the DEFI-B's charge IC applies a reduced termination current to an unrecognised cell — it reads the new pack as potentially over-capacity and backs off early. The result is a charge indicator that plateaus at roughly 85–90% and does not advance. Disconnect the charger, power on the device to draw the pack down to approximately 11V, then perform a full uninterrupted charge cycle. After this conditioning run the charge IC adjusts its termination threshold and the indicator will reach 100%.

Frequently Asked Questions
The DEFI-B is showing a low battery alarm straight after I charged the new pack — what's happening?
The DEFI-B's low battery threshold is tuned to the charge curve of a conditioned Ni-MH cell. A new pack hasn't completed its BMS learn cycle, so the device reads the voltage profile as below threshold even when the pack is full. Run one complete charge-discharge cycle on the bench before clinical use — after that cycle the BMS recalibrates and the alarm clears at the correct state of charge.
The DEFI-B won't power on at all after the replacement battery sat in storage for a few months — is the cell dead?
Ni-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day, so a pack stored for several months can drop below the DEFI-B's BMS recovery threshold — typically around 9–10V for a 14.4V pack. Below that level the BMS locks out to prevent cell reversal damage and the device shows no response at power-on. Connect the pack to the OEM charger and leave it on charge for a full uninterrupted cycle; most charge ICs include a trickle pre-charge stage that recovers cells down to approximately 9V before switching to full charge current.
The DEFI-B powers on fine but shuts off unexpectedly during the first few uses — is this a BMS trip?
Yes — new Ni-MH cells have a higher internal resistance before the first 8–10 conditioning cycles, which causes a sharper voltage sag under the DEFI-B's defibrillation charge load. The BMS interprets that sag as an undervoltage event and cuts the pack to protect the circuit. This is normal cell behaviour, not a defective pack. Complete 8–10 full charge-discharge cycles in a non-clinical environment and the internal resistance drops; the voltage sag under load will fall within BMS limits and the unexpected shutoffs will stop.
