It replaces OEM part M02864T — the original flat cell that sits behind the touchscreen display assembly. Fits the 60GB hard drive variant of the Archos 5 series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArchos 5 60GB fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The 60GB model uses a physically larger cell cavity than the flash-storage variants. This 96.50 × 74.00 × 4.00mm pouch cell matches that cavity and the original connector pinout, so the device firmware reads charge state correctly 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 the Archos 5 charging circuit and confirmed the BMS accepts charge from 0% without triggering a protection lockout. Charge termination tripped cleanly at 4.2V, with no thermal event during the constant-current phase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap power-on procedure:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If the player sits unused for weeks after the swap, connect the charger and leave it plugged in for at least 30 minutes before pressing the power button. The Archos 5 enters a deep-discharge protection state that blocks normal startup until the cell reaches a minimum threshold voltage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery percentage jumping after cell swap on the Archos 5\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eAfter fitting a new cell, the Archos 5 firmware often displays erratic percentage readings — jumping from 80% to 20% mid-session, or bouncing at the top of the range. The onboard fuel gauge uses stored voltage-to-capacity curves calibrated to the old, degraded cell. A fresh cell with a steeper discharge curve confuses those thresholds. Run the player down to automatic shutdown, then charge uninterrupted to 4.2V. One full cycle is usually enough for the indicator to stabilise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePlayback cutting out before the battery indicator shows empty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Archos 5's audio amplifier draws a short current spike at the end of a track transition. Near the bottom of the discharge curve — typically below 3.5V — cell impedance rises enough that this spike causes a brief voltage sag. The BMS reads that dip as an undervoltage fault and shuts the device down, even if the indicator still shows a few percent remaining. This is a cell chemistry behaviour, not a firmware bug. If it happens consistently, the cell is at end of life; a fresh 2600mAh cell restores the full usable range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381351579738,"sku":"BWCS-AVS5SL-1","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381351612506,"sku":"BWCS-AVS5SL-2","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381351645274,"sku":"BWCS-AVS5SL-3","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-AVS5SL-1.webp?v=1778900058","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/archos-5-60gb-replacement-battery-37v-2600mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
