It replaces OEM part numbers A-12 and 308-50025-03. The battery powers the doorbell's continuous video recording, motion detection, and night vision functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAVD2001 fitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The Essential Smart Wired Video Doorbell uses this cell as a buffer between the wired transformer input and the processor load. Voltage spikes during motion-triggered recording are absorbed by the battery rather than passed directly from the wire feed, so connector alignment and BMS handshake voltage must match the original cell exactly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through motion-trigger cycles on a wired doorbell unit. The BMS handled the combined IR LED and processor current draw without tripping, and the cell held voltage above 3.5V through sustained multi-event recording sequences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApp registration after swap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Power cycle the doorbell once through the Arlo app immediately after fitting the new cell. The firmware must register the fresh battery before motion events log correctly to cloud storage — skipping this step can cause missed recordings even when the hardware is fully functional.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the AVD2001 goes offline in the Arlo app after a battery swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen the AVD2001 loses power during a battery swap, the active session token between the doorbell and Arlo's cloud server expires. The device comes back online at the hardware level, but the app loses its registration link and shows the doorbell as offline or unreachable. This is a firmware-side behaviour, not a fault with the replacement cell. To fix it, remove the doorbell from your device list in the Arlo app and re-add it — the app will re-establish the token and the device will show as online within 60 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eApp reporting 0% or incorrect charge percentage after install\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe AVD2001 uses a voltage-threshold indicator rather than a fuel gauge IC, so the percentage shown in the app is calculated from cell voltage at rest. A new cell installed at a slightly different resting voltage than the depleted original will confuse the threshold table and display 0% or a wildly incorrect figure. This is not a faulty battery. Run one full charge cycle through the wired input and let the cell rest for two hours — the app will re-anchor its threshold reference and display an accurate percentage once the resting voltage stabilises above 4.0V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43377766989914,"sku":"BWCS-NAR201SL-1","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43377767022682,"sku":"BWCS-NAR201SL-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43377767055450,"sku":"BWCS-NAR201SL-3","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-NAR201SL-1.webp?v=1778772243","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/arlo-essential-smart-wired-video-doorbell-replacement-battery-37v-5200mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
