It slots into either model and restores power when the original cell can no longer hold a charge. Capacity is 3.7Wh — identical to the factory specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ232 and Q233 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models share the same battery bay dimensions and voltage rail. The cell footprint is 46.89 × 44.00 × 5.37mm, which matches the physical compartment in both handsets without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on the bench. The BMS accepted a standard charge current without tripping, and the protection circuit cut off correctly at the low-voltage threshold — no anomalous behaviour at either end of the charge curve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration after install:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use, disable fast charging if your charger supports it, then run one full discharge down to automatic shutdown followed by a complete charge. This lets the fuel gauge IC map its reference curve against the new cell before high-current charging begins on an uncalibrated state-of-charge counter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the replacement cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis is a voltage cliff issue, not a capacity problem. Under peak load — mobile data, screen at full brightness, active call — the cell voltage drops sharply. The BMS reads that drop and cuts power before the percentage counter reaches zero. It happens most on a new cell that has not yet been calibrated to the fuel gauge IC. Run one full discharge-charge cycle and the shutdown threshold should stabilise. If it continues after two full cycles, check that the battery connector is fully seated — a loose contact increases internal resistance and amplifies the voltage sag under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePhone will not power on after sitting in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eIf the cell discharged below approximately 2.5V during storage, the BMS enters a lockout state and blocks normal charging. The phone shows no response on a standard cable. Connect it to a low-current USB source — a PC port or a 5V 500mA adapter — and leave it for 20 to 30 minutes without pressing the power button. This trickle current nudges the cell voltage above the BMS recovery threshold. Once the phone shows a charging indicator, switch to your normal charger and complete a full cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409493196890,"sku":"BWCS-NK5KSL-1","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409493229658,"sku":"BWCS-NK5KSL-2","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409493262426,"sku":"BWCS-NK5KSL-3","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-NK5KSL-1.webp?v=1779579814","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/explay-q232-replacement-battery-37v-1000mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
