Replaces part numbers GWG40B2 and GWG40B4. Slots into the same 40V platform that powers over 75 GreenWorks tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBroad 40V platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e GreenWorks standardized the connector, voltage rail, and BMS handshake across the 40V lineup, so one battery covers chainsaws, pole saws, and dozens of other tools sharing the same platform.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e We ran full charge\/discharge cycles — the BMS held voltage steady under cutting load and tripped cleanly at the low-voltage cutoff without dropping the tool mid-cut.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst charge after storage:\u003c\/strong\u003e If the battery has been sitting, run a full charge before first use — Li-ion cells partially discharged in storage need one complete cycle to recalibrate capacity reporting on the charger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy capacity matters on a chainsaw pulling sustained load\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eChainsaws draw hard, uneven current — especially through knots or dense limbs. A 5000mAh cell pack handles those current spikes without the BMS tripping an overcurrent fault. Smaller capacity packs on the same voltage can shut the tool down mid-cut when load spikes. The 200Wh total energy rating here gives the BMS more headroom to manage those peaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery not recognized by the charger — here's why\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eGreenWorks 40V chargers handshake with the battery's BMS before starting a charge cycle. If the charger flashes an error and won't start, the cells may have discharged below the BMS recovery threshold during shipping. Connect the battery for 30 seconds, disconnect, then reconnect — this wakes the protection circuit and allows the charger to establish communication and begin charging normally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43175811711066,"sku":"BWCS-GWP410PX-1","price":162.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43175811743834,"sku":"BWCS-GWP410PX-2","price":192.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43175811776602,"sku":"BWCS-GWP410PX-3","price":214.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-GWP410PX-1.webp?v=1775236275","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/greenworks-40v-12-chainsaw-replacement-battery-40v-5000mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
