Orgapack OR-T100 12V Replacement Battery 2179.150 3000mAh

Orgapack OR-T100 / OR-T200 / OR-T300 — 12V Ni-MH Replacement Battery (2179.150)

This is a 12V 3000mAh Ni-MH battery for the Orgapack OR-T100, OR-T200, and OR-T300 cordless electric strapping tools. It replaces OEM part numbers 2179.150 and 2179.155. These tools are used in logistics and packaging operations to tension and seal plastic or steel strapping on parcels and pallets.

• OR-T100, OR-T200, OR-T300 platform fit: All three models share the same 12V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol — one pack covers the full OR-T series without modification.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack through repeated tensioning loads on the OR-T100. The BMS held stable through peak motor draw at maximum tension and recovered correctly after load release.
• Cold warehouse use: Below 10°C, Ni-MH cells deliver higher internal resistance. On the tensioning cycle, the OR-T motor draws sharply enough at peak tension to trip the BMS on a cold pack. Bring the battery above 10°C before starting work in refrigerated or unheated facilities.

BMS cutoff during the tensioning cycle on a fresh battery

The OR-T series motor pulls a sharp current spike at maximum tension — this is normal, but a new or recently stored Ni-MH pack may not yet be at peak charge acceptance. If the BMS reads that spike as an overcurrent fault, it cuts power mid-cycle. Run two to three full charge-discharge cycles on the new pack before using it on heavy strapping loads. After conditioning, the BMS trip threshold aligns correctly with the motor's peak draw.

Tensioning force drops off before the strap is at rated tension

Reduced tensioning force under load is typically voltage sag, not a faulty motor. Sag happens when contact resistance at the battery terminals climbs — oxidation on the blade contacts is the most common cause in warehouse environments. Clean both the pack contacts and the tool's battery bay contacts with isopropyl alcohol, then retest. If sag persists after cleaning, check cell state-of-charge first — the pack should read at or above 13.2V immediately after a full charge before insertion.
