It matches the OEM voltage rail, cell count, and BMS communication protocol the motor controller expects. Capacity is sourced from the product specification — 1500mAh \/ 32.4Wh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDC58 \/ DC61 \/ DC62 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 21.6V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake sequence. The motor controller on each validates cell voltage and pack temperature before enabling the trigger — this replacement passes that check on all listed variants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack on a DC62 under sustained full-power and boost-mode cycles. The BMS held the discharge curve within spec, stepped down correctly at the low-cell threshold, and did not false-trip on the motor-start current spike that older third-party packs commonly trigger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDock charging behaviour on this vacuum:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Do not leave the vacuum sitting on the wall-mount charging dock permanently. The DC61 and DC62 chargers continue to push trickle current after the pack is full. Remove the vacuum from the dock once charging is complete to prevent accelerated capacity fade in the replacement cells.\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\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eOn the DC61 and DC62, suction loss before the LED battery indicator triggers low is almost always a motor voltage sag problem — not a battery capacity problem. When the filter is partially blocked, the motor draws higher current to maintain airflow. That elevated draw pulls cell voltage down faster than the indicator circuit tracks, so the motor slows before the indicator catches up. Clean or replace the pre-motor and post-motor filters first. If suction restores after a filter clean, the battery is not the root cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eMotor cutting out mid-clean and then recovering after a few seconds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis is a BMS overcurrent trip, not a faulty battery. The DC61 and DC62 BMS cuts the discharge circuit when sustained current exceeds the pack's rated limit — this typically happens when the filter is restricted or the bin is overfull, forcing the motor to work harder for longer. The BMS resets after a short thermal pause, which is why the vacuum recovers on its own. Empty the bin, inspect the filter, then restart. If the cutout still occurs on a clean filter with a new pack, check that the charger is rated for the DC61 platform — a mismatched charger can leave cells unevenly balanced, which lowers the BMS trip threshold to around 20V per cell group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43428050796634,"sku":"BWCS-DYC610VX-1","price":72.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43428050829402,"sku":"BWCS-DYC610VX-2","price":84.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43428050862170,"sku":"BWCS-DYC610VX-3","price":93.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-DYC610VX-1.webp?v=1779933938","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/dyson-dc61-replacement-battery-216v-1500mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
