It replaces OEM part numbers DR36 and DR36S. The battery restores cordless operation for mobile printing and field use where mains power is not available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6200T and Vividy Note platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 12V rail, DR36 connector footprint, and BMS handshake protocol — one cell works across the entire listed range without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through full charge and discharge cycles on the 6200T. The BMS accepted the pack without fault codes, and charge termination triggered correctly at capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNi-MH cycle conditioning:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Ni-MH cells in portable printers are prone to voltage depression if repeatedly shallow-cycled in short print sessions. Run the pack to full depletion at least once every 30 cycles to prevent memory-like capacity drift specific to this chemistry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the 6200T reports a low-battery warning immediately after a new pack is installed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe 6200T's fuel gauge IC retains state data from the previous cell. When a fresh DR36 pack is installed, the IC reads residual EEPROM values and displays an inaccurate charge level — sometimes showing critically low even on a fully charged replacement. This is not a fault with the new cell. Run one full charge cycle uninterrupted to 100%, then allow the device to discharge to automatic shutoff. That sequence forces the fuel gauge IC to recalibrate against the new cell's actual capacity curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eDevice shuts down mid-print job despite the gauge showing charge remaining\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the cell voltage drops below the BMS cutoff threshold under the combined load of the print head and paper feed motor — typically around 10.5V for a 12V Ni-MH pack. The fuel gauge reads average voltage, not load voltage, so it shows remaining charge while the cell is already collapsing under peak draw. A cell showing this symptom after fewer than 20 cycles likely has elevated internal resistance from improper storage or a manufacturing variance. Measure open-circuit voltage after a full charge — it should hold above 13.2V at rest before accepting the cell as healthy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43410857525338,"sku":"BWCS-DR36HB-1","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43410857558106,"sku":"BWCS-DR36HB-2","price":105.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43410857590874,"sku":"BWCS-DR36HB-3","price":118.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-DR36HB-big.webp?v=1779581376","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/epson-6200t-replacement-battery-12v-3800mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
