These are compact handheld units used for building diagnostics, electrical panel inspections, and mechanical fault finding. Voltage and capacity match the original specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ei3, i5, i7, and IRC40 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    All four models share the same battery form factor, 3.7V nominal rail, and connector pinout. The BMS handshake protocol is identical across this camera family, so the same cell works in any of them without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this battery through full charge and discharge cycles on an i7 unit. The BMS held steady under the combined draw of the LCD display and the resistive detector heating element — no false low-voltage cutoffs during normal operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap warm-up requirement:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting a new battery and powering on, allow at least 60 seconds before taking measurements. The thermal detector needs the internal electronics to reach a stable temperature before it can establish an accurate baseline calibration — readings taken in the first minute can drift noticeably.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eThermal camera shutting down mid-inspection on a new battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Flir i-series draws current from two sources simultaneously — the display backlight and the detector's heating element. On a cold start, both ramp up at the same time, creating a short current spike that can trigger the BMS over-current protection if the cell's internal resistance is too high. A degraded or deeply discharged original battery fails here first. This replacement uses cells rated for the combined peak draw, so the BMS doesn't see a voltage sag large enough to trip the cutoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eImage accuracy degrading before the battery indicator shows low\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Flir i-series thermal detector is voltage-sensitive — it needs the supply rail to stay above approximately 3.4V to maintain calibrated accuracy. A worn battery can sag below this threshold under detector load while the fuel gauge still reads mid-charge, because the gauge measures resting voltage, not loaded voltage. The result is temperature readings that drift or blur before any low-battery warning appears. If measurements become inconsistent partway through a job, check the battery voltage under load — replace if it drops below 3.4V during active scanning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426121515098,"sku":"BWCS-EXT7XL-1","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426121547866,"sku":"BWCS-EXT7XL-2","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426121580634,"sku":"BWCS-EXT7XL-3","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-EXT7XL_1.webp?v=1779930364","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/flir-i3-replacement-battery-37v-3400mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
