It fits the MC91, MC92, MC96, MC97, and over 26 additional models in the same platform family. The OEM equivalent part number is 921665-000.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMC91–MC97 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share a common 6V battery bay, connector pinout, and charge management circuit. Swapping across this range works because the BMS handshake and cell format are standardised across the series — the remote doesn't distinguish between model variants at the battery interface level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell pack through charge cycles on the MC91 platform and confirmed the BMS accepted charge without fault flags. Solenoid activation draw was handled without voltage dropout at full charge state.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdle-period charge maintenance for crane remotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Ni-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day. If this remote sits unused for more than six weeks, the pack can drop low enough that the remote won't power on at all. Connect the charger for a full cycle before any scheduled lift operation — not just when the low-battery indicator appears.\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 freshly installed battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen the MC91 remote triggers a crane solenoid or relay, the inrush current spike can be two to three times the steady-state draw. A battery at partial charge or with weak cells may sag below the BMS cutoff threshold at that exact moment, cutting power to the remote mid-command. This isn't a wiring fault — it's a battery voltage issue. Ensure the replacement cell is at full charge before operational use, and confirm the pack is rated at or above 3000mAh to handle the transient load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRemote showing \"low battery\" immediately after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNew Ni-MH cells ship at storage voltage — typically 1.0–1.1V per cell, which puts a 5-cell 6V pack around 5.2–5.5V at rest. The MC91 remote interprets this as a depleted battery because it is below nominal operating voltage. This is not a faulty battery. Place the pack on charge immediately after installation and allow a full charge cycle before use. The low-battery indicator should clear once the pack reaches 6.0–6.3V under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360044482650,"sku":"BWCS-AKT910BL-1","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360044515418,"sku":"BWCS-AKT910BL-2","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360044548186,"sku":"BWCS-AKT910BL-3","price":75.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-AKT910BL-1.webp?v=1778610710","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/akerstroms-mc91-replacement-battery-6v-3000mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
