It cross-references OEM part numbers including BAT038, BAT040, BAT041, BAT159, and the 2 607 335 264 series. The connector and terminal layout match the original Bosch slide-pack form factor used across this voltage platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e14.4V Bosch slide-pack platform:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The 13614, 15614, and 1661 models share the same 14.4V rail and slide-pack connector geometry. Bosch standardised this interface across the generation, so one battery fits the full lineup without adapter modifications or terminal rework.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack on a 13614-2G under repeated trigger cycles, monitoring cell voltage recovery between loads. The BMS held cutoff thresholds correctly and the charger handshake completed on first insertion without fault codes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNi-MH break-in on high-torque drills:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Run the 13614 at half load for the first two cycles before driving large fasteners or using maximum torque settings. Ni-MH cells need initial cycling to equalise charge across the cell string — skipping this can cause premature voltage drop under load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBMS overcurrent trip on 13614 motor-start inrush\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe 13614 draws a sharp inrush current the instant the trigger closes — this spike is significantly higher than the steady running current. On a new or cold Ni-MH pack, the BMS may read that spike as an overcurrent event and cut the output rail before the motor reaches speed. This is more common in cold conditions where internal cell resistance is elevated. After a cutout, remove the pack, wait 60 seconds, and reinsert — this resets the BMS latch without needing a charger cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCharger not recognising the pack after storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH packs that have sat unused for several months can self-discharge below the voltage threshold the Bosch charger uses to confirm a valid pack is present. The charger sees a voltage too low to begin a charge cycle and either blinks an error or does nothing. To recover, briefly connect the pack to a known-good Ni-MH charger set to trickle or recovery mode until cell voltage rises above 10V total. Once the pack crosses that threshold, re-insert it into the Bosch charger and the standard charge cycle will initiate normally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43416083693658,"sku":"BWCS-BS3360PW-1","price":84.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43416083726426,"sku":"BWCS-BS3360PW-2","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43416083759194,"sku":"BWCS-BS3360PW-3","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-BS3360PW-1.webp?v=1779760223","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/bosch-13614-replacement-battery-144v-1500mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
