It replaces OEM part numbers including 23-U74201-31, UN243, UN243S, and BAT-243S1. If the original cell no longer holds a charge or the OS reports degraded health, this cell restores normal operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eN243 and N244 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both series run the same 14.8V four-cell Li-ion architecture with identical connector pinout and BMS handshake protocol, which is why a single cell covers both lines. The BMS reads pack identity from the EEPROM on first boot — no hardware modification needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge, full-load discharge, and BMS cutoff on N243 hardware. The protection circuit tripped correctly at low-voltage cutoff, and the charge controller accepted the cell without error flags after a full learn cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-install calibration on the N243:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting, run one complete discharge until the notebook hibernates on its own, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This resets the BIOS battery learn cycle and clears the inaccurate health warning that appears after a cell swap — skipping this step leaves the fuel gauge IC reading from stale EEPROM data.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBIOS reporting poor battery health immediately after swap on the N243\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen the N243 BIOS flags a new cell as \"poor health\" or \"replace battery\" straight after installation, the fault is almost always stale EEPROM data carried over from the old pack — not a problem with the new cell. The fuel gauge IC compares measured capacity against the rated value stored in firmware and raises a flag when they don't align. Run one full discharge-to-hibernate cycle followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100% to let the BIOS re-learn the actual cell capacity. After two to three cycles the health indicator should normalise and report accurately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eN243 shutting down abruptly at 20–30% shown on the fuel gauge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the cell voltage drops below the BMS cutoff threshold under combined CPU and display load before the fuel gauge predicts it should. It is a calibration gap — the gauge IC is still using capacity estimates from the previous degraded cell. The cell voltage at that shutdown point is typically around 14.0–14.2V under load, which the BMS correctly treats as low-voltage cutoff even though the percentage shown looks safe. Run the full discharge-calibration cycle described above; after one or two passes the gauge tracking should align with actual cell behaviour and the premature shutdowns will stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43410843926618,"sku":"BWCS-UWN243NB-1","price":81.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43410843959386,"sku":"BWCS-UWN243NB-2","price":95.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43410843992154,"sku":"BWCS-UWN243NB-3","price":106.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-UWN243NB-1.webp?v=1779581321","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/arm-n243-replacement-battery-148v-4400mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
