It fits a broad range of 14.4V Hitachi tools including the CJ 14DL, DH 14DL, and 39 additional models sharing the same voltage rail and connector. Capacity is 21.6Wh as rated from factory spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-model platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These Hitachi 14.4V tools share a common battery interface, BMS handshake protocol, and slide-lock connector. One cell pack covers drills, drivers, jigsaws, and rotary hammers across the platform — no adapters needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack under simulated drill motor-start inrush loads. The BMS held the overcurrent threshold without tripping on initial trigger pulls and balanced cell discharge across the five-cell series arrangement within normal variance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst two cycles on a new pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use, run the tool at half load for two cycles before full-torque applications. This lets the BMS profile motor inrush current draw before it locks in its overcurrent protection thresholds — skipping this can cause false BMS trips on heavy fastening jobs.\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 motor-start inrush surge in Hitachi 14.4V drills\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eWhen a drill motor starts from rest, it pulls 3–5× its running current in the first 50–100ms. On a new or fully charged pack, the BMS may read that spike as an overcurrent fault and cut output. This is more common with rotary hammer models like the DH 14DL, where start-up torque demand is higher than a standard driver. If the tool clicks off on trigger pull, release the trigger, wait five seconds, then apply gradual pressure rather than full pull. That ramp lets inrush current stay under the BMS trip threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCharger not recognising this pack after extended storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-ion cells left unused for several months can drop below the minimum acceptance voltage — typically 2.5V per cell, or around 12.5V for this 14.4V five-cell pack. Most Hitachi chargers won't initiate a charge cycle below that threshold and will show a fault or simply sit idle. Remove the pack, wait 60 seconds, and re-seat it firmly — a poor contact can mimic a low-voltage refusal. If the charger still won't respond, check cell voltage at the battery terminals with a multimeter; anything above 10V per pack total can usually be recovered by a charger with a manual recovery or boost mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43416084381786,"sku":"BWCS-HTB415PW-1","price":81.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43416084414554,"sku":"BWCS-HTB415PW-2","price":95.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43416084447322,"sku":"BWCS-HTB415PW-3","price":106.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-HTB415PW-1.webp?v=1779760223","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/hitachi-c-2-replacement-battery-144v-1500mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
