It replaces a wide range of OEM part numbers including 0KR854, C565C, F224C, and GN752. If the original cell has degraded or will no longer hold charge, this is the direct cell replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eM6400 and M6500 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both the Precision M6400 and M6500 share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol — which is why one cell covers both platforms. The Inspiron 6400 and E1505 share the same 11.1V rail and connector form factor, extending compatibility across that generation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through a full charge and discharge cycle on a Precision M6400. The BMS communicated correctly with the host, charge acceptance was normal across all three cells, and the protection circuit tripped cleanly at the low-voltage cutoff threshold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-install calibration on the Precision M6400:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, run one full discharge to hibernate-cutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100% before using the machine again. The Precision BIOS uses a battery learn cycle to recalibrate its fuel gauge IC against the new cell — skipping this step leaves an inaccurate health warning in Dell Power Manager after every swap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBIOS reporting battery health as poor after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Dell Precision BIOS stores battery health data in EEPROM tied to the original cell's charge history. When a new cell is installed, that stored data no longer matches actual cell capacity, so the BIOS flags the battery as degraded or unknown — even though the cell is new. This is not a fault with the replacement. Running a full discharge-to-hibernate followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100% forces the fuel gauge IC to relearn the cell's actual capacity curve. After one or two full cycles, Dell Power Manager should read health above 90% and the warning clears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eLaptop shutting down at 20–30% charge shown on screen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the fuel gauge IC has not yet calibrated against the new cell — the percentage displayed no longer matches the cell's actual remaining voltage. Under full CPU and GPU load on the M6400, the cell voltage drops faster than the stale gauge predicts, and the system hits the hardware undervoltage cutoff before the OS-reported percentage reaches zero. The fix is calibration: fully discharge the battery to the point where the laptop hibernates on its own, then charge to 100% without interruption. After that cycle, the gauge tracks the actual cell voltage and the premature shutdown stops. Target a resting voltage of 12.4–12.6V at a full charge state to confirm the cell is performing correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409776279642,"sku":"BWCS-DEM640NB-1","price":131.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409776312410,"sku":"BWCS-DEM640NB-2","price":151.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409776345178,"sku":"BWCS-DEM640NB-3","price":166.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-DEM640NB-1.webp?v=1779580818","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/dell-precision-m6400-replacement-battery-111v-6600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
