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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKindle 2 and Kindle DX compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both devices share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol — one cell fits all three model variants listed without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap charge cycle on Kindle 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Kindle 2 won't boot after a battery swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eReplacement 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery percentage jumping around after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eKindle 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360269992026,"sku":"BWCS-ABD002SL-1","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360270024794,"sku":"BWCS-ABD002SL-2","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360270057562,"sku":"BWCS-ABD002SL-3","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ABD002SL-1.webp?v=1778611047","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/amazon-kindle-2-replacement-battery-37v-1100mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
