It fits the BC82, BC92, MC83, MC93, and compatible models in the same crane remote control family. Capacity is taken directly from the product specification — 10.8Wh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBC82 \/ BC92 \/ MC83 \/ MC93 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These remotes share the same 7.2V battery bay, connector pinout, and charge termination logic. The Ni-MH chemistry matches the original delta-V cutoff used by the Akerstroms charging dock — swapping to a different chemistry would defeat the charge termination signal and risk overcharge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through the Akerstroms docking charger and monitored charge termination. The BMS accepted the delta-V signal correctly on the first cycle and the remote powered on without error flags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMonthly charge during crane downtime:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Ni-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day. A crane remote sitting unused for six to eight weeks can drop low enough that the charger dock sees the cell as defective and refuses to initiate a charge cycle. Run a charge once per month during any idle period.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSolenoid activation causing power dropout on the BC82 remote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen a crane solenoid or relay fires, it pulls a short inrush current spike through the remote's output circuit. A partially depleted Ni-MH cell has higher internal resistance than a full one, and that spike can pull cell voltage below the remote's brownout threshold — even if the battery indicator still shows green. This looks like an intermittent fault or a dead remote, but it's a voltage-sag issue. Start each shift with a fully charged battery, and if dropout persists on a fresh cell, check that resting voltage is at or above 8.4V before committing the remote to a lift cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRemote shows low-battery warning immediately after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells ship at storage voltage — typically 1.0–1.1V per cell, which puts a 6-cell 7.2V pack around 6.0–6.6V. The BC82 remote reads this as a low or discharged battery and flags accordingly. This is not a fault with the cell. Place the battery in the Akerstroms dock and run a full charge cycle before first use — resting voltage should read 7.8–8.4V before the remote is put into service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360047333466,"sku":"BWCS-AKT830BL-1","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360047366234,"sku":"BWCS-AKT830BL-2","price":50.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360047399002,"sku":"BWCS-AKT830BL-3","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-AKT830BL-1.webp?v=1778610709","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/akerstroms-bc82-replacement-battery-72v-1500mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
