Datalogic BS-215 Mobile Scorpio Replacement Battery 3.7V 2200mAh

Datalogic Mobile Scorpio — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (BS-215)

This 3.7V, 2200mAh Li-ion battery replaces the original pack in the Datalogic Mobile Scorpio handheld barcode scanner. It fits retail, logistics, and warehouse environments where the Scorpio handles continuous scanning and data collection across shifts. Matches OEM part numbers BS-215, BS-229, 127021590, 127021591, and 94ACC0054.

• Mobile Scorpio compatibility: These OEM part numbers cross-reference to the same physical cell format, connector pinout, and BMS handshake used across the Mobile Scorpio production run — no firmware mismatch, no contact reconfiguration required.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this pack through charge and discharge cycles on the Mobile Scorpio platform. The BMS communicated correctly with the device, held the charge curve within spec, and did not trigger low-voltage cutoff during simulated scan-burst loads.
• First-shift prep for pick-and-pack use: Place the scanner in its cradle for a full charge cycle before deploying on a shift. Scan-trigger inrush current peaks when the cell is near minimum charge — starting a shift from a full cell prevents false BMS trips during the first rapid-scan burst of the day.

Cradle showing a charging error on a new pack

Charging docks on the Mobile Scorpio rely on low-resistance contact between the battery terminals and the cradle pins. A new pack with oxidised or slightly misaligned contacts can cause the dock to report a fault even when the battery itself is fine. Wipe the gold contacts on the battery with a dry lint-free cloth and reseat the unit firmly until the cradle clicks. If the error clears within 30 seconds of reseating, contact resistance was the cause — not the cell.

Scanner losing wireless connection during rapid scan bursts

The Mobile Scorpio draws simultaneously from the radio module and the scan trigger during high-frequency scanning. If the cell voltage sags below the radio's operating threshold during that combined inrush, the wireless link drops before the scanner logs a low-battery warning. This is most common when the battery is below 20% charge. Keep the pack above 3.5V during active wireless sessions to avoid mid-burst disconnections.
