It slots into the handset battery compartment and restores wireless operation with the base station. No OEM part number is published for this model — the fit is confirmed against the CP 486S handset only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCP 486S handset fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The CP 486S uses a four-cell Ni-MH pack running a 4.8V nominal rail. The base station charger circuit expects that voltage window — drop in a Li-ion or lower-cell-count pack and the charge controller will either refuse to charge or overcharge the cells.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through the CP 486S base station and confirmed the charge acceptance circuit recognised the Ni-MH voltage signature correctly. The BMS on the base held the trickle charge rate after the initial charge phase completed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-charge protocol for Ni-MH cordless packs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Place the handset in the base immediately after installing this battery and leave it for a full 16 hours before first use. Ni-MH cells shipped in partial discharge won't reach rated capacity on a short charge — the slow first cycle is what conditions the cells to deliver their full 1800mAh.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBase station showing no charge light after fitting a new Ni-MH pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH batteries lose voltage during storage. If the pack sits long enough, its resting voltage drops below the threshold the CP 486S base needs to start a charge cycle. The base interprets this as either a missing or faulty battery and shows no charge activity. To recover it, seat the handset firmly in the base, wait 10–15 minutes — some charger circuits will retry — and verify the charging indicator activates. If it still won't start, the pack voltage has likely dropped below 3.6V and the base won't initiate; a brief charge from an external Ni-MH charger at the correct cell count will bring it back into the acceptance window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eTalk time shorter than expected for the first few cycles\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells don't deliver full rated capacity straight out of the box — capacity builds over the first three to five full charge and discharge cycles. A handset that feels like it's running short early is behaving normally for a new Ni-MH pack. Each complete cycle through the base station charges the cells a little closer to their 1800mAh ceiling. By the fifth full cycle, talk time should match the rated capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43339949015130,"sku":"BWCS-CPS486CL-1","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43339949047898,"sku":"BWCS-CPS486CL-2","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43339949080666,"sku":"BWCS-CPS486CL-3","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-CPS486CL-1.webp?v=1778367002","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/cobra-cp-486s-replacement-battery-48v-1800mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
