It fits the BC85, BC95, M-200J, RMC31, and compatible models in the same series. Each cell pack ships at storage voltage — charge before first use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBC85 \/ BC95 \/ M-200J \/ RMC31 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These remotes share the same 7.4V two-cell Li-ion rail, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. One battery pack covers the range without any modification to the remote housing or charging cradle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through repeated solenoid-activation sequences on a BC85 unit. The BMS held voltage through inrush events without triggering dropout. Cell balance stayed within 30mV across five discharge cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMonthly charge requirement for idle remotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Crane remotes stored between lifts can sit uncharged for months. Li-ion cells that drop below 2.5V per cell trigger a deep-discharge BMS lockout. Connect this pack to the cradle charger once a month during any idle period to keep cells above that threshold.\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 a new battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen a crane remote fires a solenoid or relay, the inrush current spike can briefly exceed the BMS overcurrent threshold. An aged or undercharged cell pack has higher internal resistance, which amplifies the voltage sag at that moment. This trips the BMS protection circuit and the remote drops power mid-command. A fully charged pack at 8.4V reduces internal resistance enough to absorb the inrush without triggering the cutoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRemote shows low battery immediately after installing a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-ion packs ship at approximately 3.7V per cell — roughly 50% state of charge — to meet safe transport requirements. The BC85 firmware reads resting voltage to estimate charge state, so a storage-voltage pack will display a low-battery warning on power-up. This is not a fault with the battery. Place the pack in the cradle charger and charge to 8.4V before operating the remote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360045072474,"sku":"BWCS-AKC850BL-1","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360045105242,"sku":"BWCS-AKC850BL-2","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360045138010,"sku":"BWCS-AKC850BL-3","price":70.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-AKC850BL-1.webp?v=1778610709","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/akerstroms-bc85-replacement-battery-74v-2600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
