It replaces the original cell when capacity fades or the unit no longer holds a charge through a navigation session. Physical dimensions are 52.96 × 33.64 × 5.15mm — confirm these against your original cell before fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBN-901 and BN-901S compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models share the same battery bay dimensions and 3.7V single-cell architecture. The BMS on these units monitors cell voltage directly — no proprietary handshake or authentication chip is involved, so swapping cells does not trigger a lock-out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on a GPS navigator platform at 3.7V nominal. The BMS responded correctly at low-voltage cutoff, and charge acceptance held across multiple cycles without thermal events.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst outdoor power-on after fitting:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing this cell, power the unit on outside and let it acquire a satellite fix before driving. A full power interruption forces a cold start — the GPS receiver rebuilds its almanac from scratch, which takes 5–10 minutes for first lock versus under a minute on a warm start.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eGPS accuracy reduced when battery level drops below 20%\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe BN-901 series reduces receiver sensitivity at low battery to protect the cell from deep discharge. This shows up as position drift or a widened accuracy circle on the map — not a signal problem, a power management decision by the firmware. Keeping the battery charged above the low-voltage threshold prevents the receiver from throttling back. If accuracy issues appear mid-route, plug in via the car charger and the receiver sensitivity recovers within a few seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eUnit shuts off without warning before the battery indicator hits empty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe on-screen battery gauge on the BN-901 is calibrated to the original cell's discharge curve. A new cell — or a degraded original — can have a slightly different voltage slope, which causes the firmware to underestimate remaining capacity. The unit hits the hardware cutoff voltage before the visual indicator reaches zero. Run two or three full charge-to-discharge cycles after fitting the new battery; the firmware recalibrates its voltage-to-percentage mapping and the gauge becomes accurate again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43377707712602,"sku":"BWCS-XEW01SL-1","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43377707745370,"sku":"BWCS-XEW01SL-2","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43377707778138,"sku":"BWCS-XEW01SL-3","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-XEW01SL-1.webp?v=1778771896","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/bluenext-bn-901-replacement-battery-37v-1000mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
