Capacity is 2200mAh (16.28Wh). It fits the GPS 7.2V platform and restores full tool operation when the original pack no longer holds a charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGPS 7.2V platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The GPS 7.2V series runs a 7.4V nominal Li-ion rail. This pack matches that voltage, the physical cell housing dimensions (65.53 × 36.48 × 18.15mm), and the connector orientation required for proper BMS communication between the pack and charger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through repeated trigger-pull inrush loads on a GPS 7.2V drill. The BMS handled the motor-start current spike without tripping overcurrent cutoff, and voltage recovered cleanly between bursts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreak-in load protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use, run the drill at half throttle for two full discharge-recharge cycles before applying maximum torque. This allows the BMS to profile the motor's inrush current draw and calibrate its overcurrent threshold before high-demand fastening work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBMS cutoff on GPS 7.2V motor-start inrush surge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eAt trigger pull, the GPS 7.2V motor draws a brief inrush spike well above its steady-state running current. If the BMS reads that spike as an overcurrent fault — particularly on a pack that has been in storage — it will cut the output rail to protect the cells. A depleted or partially charged pack has higher internal resistance, which amplifies the voltage sag during inrush and makes a false overcurrent trip more likely. Charge the pack fully to 8.4V before first use and avoid trigger-jamming from standstill on a cold pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCharger not recognising the GPS 7.2V pack after extended storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-ion cells self-discharge slowly in storage. If the pack drops below approximately 2.5V per cell, most chargers will refuse to begin a charge cycle — the acceptance voltage threshold is a protection against charging a deeply discharged or damaged cell. This shows as a blinking red indicator or no response at all on the Gude charger. Some chargers have a recovery or \"boost\" mode; if yours does not, a brief trickle from a compatible Li-ion charger set to recovery mode can bring the pack back above the acceptance threshold. Target at least 3.0V per cell before switching to normal charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43416070324314,"sku":"BWCS-BST200PW-1","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43416070357082,"sku":"BWCS-BST200PW-2","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43416070389850,"sku":"BWCS-BST200PW-3","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-BST200PW-1.webp?v=1779760040","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/gude-gps-72v-replacement-battery-74v-2200mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
