It fits the same battery bay and uses the same connector as the original pack. Swap it in when the original cell no longer holds a charge through a full warehouse shift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCT40 and CT40XP compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both devices share the same 3.8V battery bay, BMS handshake protocol, and physical connector — OEM part numbers 318-055-001, 318-055-002, and CT50-BTSC all cross-reference to this cell configuration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through a full charge-discharge cycle on the CT40 platform. The onboard BMS accepted the cell without error flags, and charge termination triggered correctly at capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-shift cradle protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Place the CT40 in its charging cradle for a complete charge cycle before using it in pick-and-pack. Scan trigger inrush current spikes highest when the cell is near minimum — a fully charged pack prevents false BMS trips on the opening shift.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCradle showing a charging error on a new pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe CT40 cradle communicates with the battery over pogo-pin contacts on the base of the device. If those contacts have oxidation or debris from warehouse use, the dock reads an incomplete handshake and throws a charging error — even with a brand-new cell installed. Remove the device from the cradle, wipe the gold contacts on both the battery door and the dock with a dry lint-free cloth, then reseat firmly. If the error clears, the contact surface was the issue, not the battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eScanner dropping wireless connection during rapid scan bursts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe CT40 runs its 802.11 radio and the imager simultaneously during high-frequency scan sequences. The combined draw from both subsystems causes a voltage sag on a degraded or low cell — the radio stack loses enough rail voltage to drop its association before the BMS triggers a hard cutoff. If the scanner reconnects immediately after the burst slows, the issue is cell voltage sag rather than a radio fault. Charge the replacement pack fully before the shift and confirm the battery indicator reads 100% before starting high-frequency scan work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43324734275674,"sku":"BWCS-HYT500BL-1","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43324734308442,"sku":"BWCS-HYT500BL-2","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43324734341210,"sku":"BWCS-HYT500BL-3","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-HYT500BL-1.webp?v=1778123056","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/dolphin-ct40-replacement-battery-38v-4000mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
