Orgapack ORT-250 Replacement Battery 14.4V 4000mAh Li-ion

Orgapack ORT-250 / OR-T250 — 14.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (2187.002)

This 14.4V 4000mAh Li-ion battery fits the Orgapack ORT-250, OR-T120, and OR-T250 battery-powered strapping tools. It replaces OEM part numbers 2187.002, 2187.002-A, and H-2385-BATT. The pack slots into the tool's battery bay and communicates with the onboard BMS using the same handshake protocol as the original.

• ORT-250, OR-T120, and OR-T250 compatibility: All three models run the same 14.4V power rail and use the same battery connector and BMS communication protocol — that's why a single pack covers the range. Swapping between these tools on the same battery is straightforward.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran tensioning cycles on the ORT-250 until the pack hit peak motor draw at maximum strap tension. The BMS held charge delivery through repeated high-current pulses without nuisance tripping or mid-cycle cutoff.
• Cold storage care for warehouse environments: For tools operating in refrigerated or cold-dock areas, bring the battery above 10°C before starting work. Below that threshold, the tensioning motor's peak current draw on a cold cell is enough to trigger BMS overcurrent protection mid-cycle.

BMS cutoff during the tensioning cycle on the ORT-250

The ORT-250's tensioning motor pulls a sharp current spike at maximum strap tension — this is the highest single load event the tool generates. If the battery's cell voltage sags below the BMS cutoff threshold during that spike, the pack shuts down to protect the cells. A worn pack hits this threshold because its internal resistance has risen; a new pack can hit it if the cells are cold or deeply discharged. Charge the replacement fully before first tensioning cycle and confirm cell temperature is above 10°C.

Li-ion cells self-discharge during storage. If a replacement pack has sat long enough for cell voltage to drop below the charger's acceptance threshold — typically around 2.5V per cell — the charger sees the pack as a fault condition rather than initiating a charge cycle. Most Orgapack chargers will not attempt recovery automatically. Place the pack on charge, wait 15 minutes, then remove and re-seat it firmly in the charger; this resets the charger's detection cycle and allows it to re-read cell voltage. If the fault persists, check the pack's terminal voltage with a multimeter — a reading below 10.5V across the pack indicates the cells need a pre-charge recovery pulse before normal charging can proceed.
