It fits the HBC Patrol S and Radiomatic RV wireless crane remote controls. These remotes operate overhead cranes and industrial lifting equipment, so a dead battery mid-shift means a stopped crane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePatrol S and Radiomatic RV compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both remotes use the same 2.4V two-cell Ni-MH pack with the BA202060 form factor. The voltage rail, connector, and physical dimensions are identical across both units — one battery covers both platforms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on the bench, confirming stable output through the transmitter's full signal-load draw. The cell held capacity across repeated cycles without voltage sag dropping the remote offline.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInfrequent-use charging schedule:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Ni-MH cells in crane remotes sitting in a locker for weeks will self-discharge below safe operating voltage. Charge the battery once a month during idle periods — cells left fully discharged for extended time can lose the ability to accept a full charge and will show low battery immediately after install.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Patrol S remote cuts out during solenoid or relay activation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen the crane's receiver triggers a solenoid or contactor, there is a brief inrush current spike back-reflected through the RF link. A battery cell near end-of-life cannot hold its voltage rail through that spike, causing the transmitter to momentarily dropout or reset. This looks like a radio fault but is a battery voltage issue. A fresh, fully charged BA202060 at 2.4V handles the transient without the remote losing power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRemote shows low battery immediately after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNew Ni-MH cells ship at storage voltage — typically 1.0–1.1V per cell, putting a two-cell pack around 2.0–2.2V total. The Patrol S interprets anything below its low-battery threshold as a depleted pack, so the indicator triggers straight away. This is not a faulty battery. Connect the remote to its charger for a full charge cycle before use — once the pack reaches 2.4V under load, the low-battery warning will clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360045989978,"sku":"BWCS-FBA221BL-1","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360046022746,"sku":"BWCS-FBA221BL-2","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360046055514,"sku":"BWCS-FBA221BL-3","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-FBA221BL-1.webp?v=1778610710","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/hbc-patrol-s-replacement-battery-24v-2000mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
