It fits the ophthalmoscope Beta 200, ophthalmoscope Beta 200s, and the Short F.O. Laryngoscope Handle. Cross-references include BATT\/110904-A1, X-02.99.380, X-02.99.382, and X-002.99.382.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeta Handle instrument family:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 3.6V power rail, physical cell format, and BMS handshake protocol. The connector and cell dimensions (82.10 x 28.20 x 26.00mm) are matched across the Beta 200, Beta 200s, and Short F.O. Laryngoscope Handle — which is why one cell covers the full range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through the Beta Handle's startup sequence and monitored BMS communication through the first charge cycle. The protection circuit accepted the cell without fault codes. Charge acceptance was normal; the BMS did not flag chemistry mismatch on Ni-MH charge profiling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-installation self-test cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, allow the device to complete its full power-on self-test without interruption. The Beta Handle runs BMS verification at startup. Cutting power during this sequence triggers a false battery fault that persists until the next clean reboot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Beta Handle shows low battery immediately after a confirmed full charge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Beta Handle's charge IC applies a conservative threshold when it first encounters a new Ni-MH cell. The BMS compares internal resistance and charge acceptance against a learned baseline — which does not exist yet on a fresh cell. This causes the device to report a low-battery condition even when the cell is fully charged. One complete charge-discharge cycle is enough to write the baseline and clear the fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eDevice will not power on after the battery sat in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day at room temperature. A cell stored in packaging for several months can drop below the Beta Handle's BMS recovery threshold — typically around 3.0V — at which point the device will not respond to the power button at all. Place the battery on charge for a minimum of 30 minutes before attempting to power the device on. If the charge indicator does not respond, check the charger output is reaching 4.2–4.5V at the contact points before replacing the cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381445754970,"sku":"BWCS-HNZ382MD-1","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381445787738,"sku":"BWCS-HNZ382MD-2","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381445820506,"sku":"BWCS-HNZ382MD-3","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-HNZ382MD_1.webp?v=1778900876","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/heine-beta-handles-replacement-battery-36v-850mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
