It matches OEM part number 20xN3000-FAL. Voltage, capacity, and connector position match the original Falard remote specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLEM 460, PEM 807, and Surrogate Radio compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    All three platforms share the same Falard remote control housing and 12V Ni-MH power rail. The BMS handshake and cell count are identical across the series, so one battery covers all three units without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell pack through charge and load cycles on a Falard remote test rig. The BMS held stable under solenoid activation inrush and did not trip during trolley movement commands at full travel speed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNi-MH storage protocol for infrequently used remotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Geismar transport systems often sit idle between track maintenance windows. Ni-MH cells lose roughly 20–30% charge per month at room temperature. If the remote is stored for more than three weeks, top up the charge before returning it to service — cells discharged below the BMS floor voltage will cause the remote to appear dead on power-up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSolenoid activation causing power dropout mid-command on the LEM 460 remote\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen the LEM 460 trolley receives a directional command, the remote fires a solenoid relay that draws a sharp inrush current spike lasting 20–80 milliseconds. An aged or partially discharged Ni-MH pack cannot sustain voltage during this spike, and the BMS cuts the output to protect the cells. The remote goes dark mid-transmission, and the trolley stops receiving signals. A fully charged 3000mAh pack at 12V nominal handles this inrush without a voltage sag large enough to trigger cutoff — always ensure the battery reads above 12.5V before starting a trolley movement sequence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRemote showing low-battery warning immediately after fitting a new cell pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eReplacement Ni-MH batteries ship at storage voltage — typically 10.8–11.4V for a 12V pack — not at full charge. The Falard remote's voltage monitor reads this as a low-battery state and flags the warning within seconds of power-up. This is not a faulty battery. Connect the pack to the Geismar-specified charger and run a full charge cycle before first use. Once the pack reaches 13.2–13.8V at end of charge, the warning will clear and the remote will operate normally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360077545562,"sku":"BWCS-FEM460BL-1","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360077578330,"sku":"BWCS-FEM460BL-2","price":96.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360077611098,"sku":"BWCS-FEM460BL-3","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-FEM460BL-1.webp?v=1778610858","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/falard-lem-460-transport-trolleys-self-propelled-radio-controlled-geismar-replacement-battery-12v-3000mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
