Battery Care Tips

🔹 Getting Started

Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.

🔹 Keep It Healthy

Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.

Delivery and Shipping

🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

Amazon Kindle 2 / Kindle DX — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (DR-A011)

This 3.7V 1100mAh Li-ion cell replaces the original battery in the Amazon Kindle 2, Kindle II, and Kindle DX e-readers. It matches OEM part numbers DR-A011 and 170-1012-00. Install it when the original cell no longer holds a charge or the device shuts down unexpectedly during reading.

  • Kindle 2 and Kindle DX compatibility: Both devices share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol — one cell fits all three model variants listed without modification.
  • Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on a Kindle 2 unit. The BMS accepted the cell, reported state-of-charge correctly, and did not trigger any protection cutoff during normal e-ink refresh load.
  • Post-swap charge cycle on Kindle 2: After fitting a new cell, connect via the device's USB cable and allow a full charge to complete before powering on. Kindle firmware recalibrates its battery percentage display against a full charge cycle — skipping this step causes the indicator to jump or read inaccurately for several sessions.

Why the Kindle 2 won't boot after a battery swap

Replacement cells ship in storage state, typically around 3.0V to 3.3V. The Kindle 2 bootloader requires a minimum voltage threshold — usually around 3.4V — before it will attempt to power on. If the device shows nothing on screen after installation, the cell is not dead; it is simply below the boot floor. Connect USB power and leave it for 10 minutes before pressing the power button. At that point the device should respond and begin a normal charge sequence.

Battery percentage jumping around after fitting a new cell

Kindle firmware tracks battery state using coulomb-counting data from the previous cell. When a new cell goes in, those stored figures no longer match the actual charge state, causing the percentage display to read erratically — jumping from 80% to 40% between page turns, or dropping suddenly. This is a firmware recalibration issue, not a fault with the cell. Run two full charge and discharge cycles to let the device re-establish its baseline, and the percentage display will stabilise.

Frequently Asked Questions

My Kindle 2 screen stays completely blank after I put the new battery in — is the cell faulty?

Almost certainly not. Replacement cells ship in storage state at around 3.0–3.3V, and the Kindle 2 bootloader won't attempt to start below roughly 3.4V. Plug in the USB cable without pressing the power button and leave it connected for 10 minutes. Once the cell clears the minimum boot voltage, the device will respond and start charging normally.

The battery indicator on my Kindle 2 drops from full to nearly empty after just a few page turns — what's happening?

This is the firmware recalibrating to the new cell, not a capacity problem. The Kindle's charge-tracking software still holds coulomb data from the old battery, so its percentage estimate is unreliable until it re-learns the new cell's characteristics. Run the battery through two complete charge cycles — charge fully to 100%, read until it shuts off from low battery, then charge fully again. After those two cycles the percentage display will track accurately.

WiFi sync is draining my Kindle 2 much faster than normal reading — is the replacement cell undersized?

The cell is the correct capacity for this device at 1100mAh. The issue is the WiFi radio itself — it draws significantly more current than the e-ink display during a page turn, and the Kindle 2 was not built for sustained wireless use. Turn WiFi off in the settings menu when you are not actively downloading books. The display-only draw is low enough that the battery will last considerably longer between charges.
