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.

Apple iPhone 8 — 3.82V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery (616-00357)
This is a 3.82V, 1950mAh Li-Polymer cell that replaces the original battery in the Apple iPhone 8. It fits models A1863, MQ6K2LL/A, MQ7H2ZP/A, and related SKUs listed under OEM part numbers 616-00357 and 616-00358. When the original cell degrades past Apple's 80% capacity threshold, iOS throttles CPU performance — swapping the cell restores full clock speed.
- iPhone 8 compatibility: All A1863 and MQ-series iPhone 8 variants use the same 3.82V battery connector, BMS handshake protocol, and fuel gauge IC pairing. One cell fits every regional variant in this lineup.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell through full charge and discharge cycles on an iPhone 8 logic board. The BMS accepted the charge curve without faults, and the fuel gauge IC began tracking state-of-charge correctly after one complete cycle.
- First-cycle fuel gauge reset: After installation, disable fast charging and run one full discharge down to auto-shutdown, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This gives the coulomb counter a clean baseline against the new cell's discharge curve before high-current charging begins.
Sudden shutdown at 20–30% on a replacement cell
The iPhone 8's fuel gauge IC stores a learned discharge curve from the original cell. A fresh cell has lower internal impedance, so the voltage-versus-capacity curve shifts. When the gauge predicts a voltage cliff using the old curve, it triggers an early shutdown even though charge remains. One full discharge-to-shutdown and uninterrupted recharge resets the coulomb counter and eliminates false cutoffs. After that cycle, reported percentage tracks actual cell state accurately.
USB-PD fast charge not activating after cell swap
On the first cycle after installation, the iPhone 8 charge IC can default to standard 5W charging while it negotiates with the new cell's BMS. This is normal behaviour — the IC runs a conservative handshake on an uncalibrated cell. Complete one standard charge cycle to 100% first. Fast charging via USB-PD typically re-enables automatically from the second cycle onward once the BMS reports a valid state-of-health above 3.6V resting voltage.

Frequently Asked Questions
My iPhone 8 keeps shutting off around 25% battery even though I just replaced the cell — what's causing that?
The fuel gauge IC is still running the discharge curve it learned from your old, degraded cell. A fresh cell has different impedance characteristics, so the predicted voltage cliff doesn't match reality and the phone cuts out early. Run one full discharge to automatic shutdown, then charge straight to 100% without interruption. After that calibration cycle, the coulomb counter resets to the new cell's curve and early shutdowns stop.
The battery percentage on my iPhone 8 is jumping around erratically after the swap — is the new cell faulty?
It's not a faulty cell — it's the fuel gauge IC recalibrating. The original cell logged thousands of charge cycles worth of data; the replacement cell has none. Until the IC runs one complete discharge-charge reference cycle, it interpolates percentage from incomplete data, which causes the erratic jumps. Let the phone drain fully to shutdown once, then charge uninterrupted to 100%, and the gauge will stabilise at resting voltage around 3.82V.
The phone gets noticeably warm near the battery during the first few charges after replacement — should I be concerned?
A new high-impedance cell produces slightly more heat than a worn cell during initial charge cycles because the charge IC hasn't yet tuned its current delivery to the new cell's resistance profile. The warmth should reduce after two or three full cycles as the IC adapts. If the phone stays hot past the third full charge or exceeds a warm-but-touchable threshold, check that the battery connector is fully seated — a partially connected cell forces the charge IC to push higher current to compensate, raising heat output.
