It cross-references OEM part numbers 965557-03, Type-B, 917083-01, and 202932-02. Voltage and capacity match the original specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDC31 \/ DC34 \/ DC35 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 22.8V battery architecture, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. Swapping the pack across any of them works without modification — the BMS communicates charge state the same way on each unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through charge and discharge cycles on a DC35 unit. The BMS held cutoff at the correct low-voltage threshold and accepted charge from the standard Dyson wall adaptor without negotiation errors or fault codes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDock charging habit for DC3x vacuums:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Do not leave the vacuum sitting on the charging dock permanently. These units trickle charge continuously when docked, which accelerates cell degradation. Charge to full, then remove the unit from the dock until the next clean.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSuction dropping before the battery indicator reaches low\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eOn DC31 and DC35 units, suction drops noticeably while the battery still shows charge remaining. This happens because the motor draws voltage from the pack under load — if the filter is partially blocked, airflow restriction forces the motor to pull more current than rated, and voltage sags at the cell level before the indicator trips. The BMS reads instantaneous voltage, not state of charge, and throttles output to protect the cells. Clean or replace the post-motor filter first, then retest — a clear airpath brings motor draw back within the pack's rated output band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eMotor cuts out mid-use then recovers after a short pause\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis is a BMS overcurrent trip, not a faulty battery. When suction is sustained against a blockage — dense carpet pile, a clogged inlet, or a filter past its service life — current draw spikes past the BMS trip threshold and the pack shuts output. A short pause lets the BMS reset and the motor restarts. The fix is not a new battery. Clear any inlet blockage, wash the pre-motor filter, and let it dry fully before reinstalling. If the motor still trips on a clear path, check that the cyclone assembly seats correctly — a partial seal causes the same high-draw symptom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43428053450842,"sku":"BWCS-DYC570VX-1","price":76.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43428053483610,"sku":"BWCS-DYC570VX-2","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43428053516378,"sku":"BWCS-DYC570VX-3","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-DYC570VX-1.webp?v=1779933937","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/dyson-dc31-animal-replacement-battery-228v-1500mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
