It cross-references OEM part numbers 41B025AK00201 and 41B025AK00501. Voltage and capacity match the original pack specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM part number coverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both 41B025AK00201 and 41B025AK00501 share the same voltage rail, physical form factor, and BMS handshake protocol — one replacement covers both part numbers without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through charge and full discharge on the bench. The BMS accepted the charger dock handshake on first insertion and held voltage stable through the discharge curve without tripping overcurrent protection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContact strip prep on first insertion:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Ni-MH packs ship at partial charge with a thin oxidation layer on the contacts. Before seating in the dock for the first time, wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth. A single clean contact cycle prevents the charger from throwing a fault LED on a pack that is otherwise fine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eGE radio cuts out mid-transmission on a fresh pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003ePressing PTT draws a sudden current spike — often two to three times the standby draw — as the RF output stage ramps up. A Ni-MH pack at storage voltage, not a full resting charge, can sag enough under that spike for the BMS to trip overcurrent protection and drop the radio. This is not a faulty cell. The pack needs at least one full charge cycle before the cell chemistry stabilises under transmit load. After a full charge, resting voltage should read between 12.5V and 13.0V on a multimeter before you key up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBar indicator shows one fewer bar than expected after a full charge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eGE portables use voltage-threshold bar indicators — each bar corresponds to a specific voltage band, not a percentage calculated by a chip. A new Ni-MH cell that has not been through a full conditioning cycle will rest slightly below its rated terminal voltage, landing in the next threshold band down. This makes a full pack look like a partial one. Run one complete charge-discharge-recharge cycle and the resting voltage will settle into the correct band, showing the expected bar count.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426320285786,"sku":"BWCS-UPX500TW-1","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426320318554,"sku":"BWCS-UPX500TW-2","price":50.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426320351322,"sku":"BWCS-UPX500TW-3","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-UPX500TW-1.webp?v=1779930681","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/ge-replacement-battery-108v-1200mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
