It powers the camera's flash, light meter, shutter electronics, and film advance motor. Voltage and capacity match the OEM specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLC-series camera compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These four models share the same battery bay dimensions and 6V power rail. The flash capacitor charge circuit, shutter timing electronics, and light meter all draw from a single cell at this voltage. Swapping to an incorrect voltage causes metering errors or no-fire flash faults.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through the LC-355 charge circuit and confirmed the BMS accepted the cell without rejection on first charge. Flash recycle behaviour remained consistent across multiple discharge cycles, and the light meter held stable readings throughout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilm camera flash capacitor care:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If the camera has sat unused for months, run one full charge-discharge cycle before shooting. Aged flash capacitors can draw a spike on first recharge that stresses a cold cell — one warm-up cycle conditions both the cell and the capacitor together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the LC-355 flash fails to fire on a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe flash capacitor in the LC-355 draws a sharp inrush current when charging from zero. If the replacement cell sits at low state of charge on arrival, this inrush can trip the cell's internal protection before the capacitor fully charges. The flash fires weakly or not at all — but the camera body is not the fault. Charge the replacement cell fully in the OEM charger before installing, and the flash capacitor will cycle normally from the first shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery percentage jumping on the LC-series display after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells have a flatter discharge curve than the original aged cell the camera's indicator was calibrated against in use. The indicator reads voltage thresholds and maps them to percentage segments — a fresh cell at full charge sits above those thresholds, causing the display to jump between bars non-linearly. This is a calibration artefact, not a cell fault. After one full charge and discharge cycle through the camera body, the indicator mapping stabilises to match the new cell's discharge curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333884903514,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333884936282,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333884969050,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-3","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PDHV20-1.webp?v=1778213555","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/grundig-lc-355-replacement-battery-6v-2100mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
