It fits the KM R36 directly and matches the original voltage rail and connector format. Capacity is 2700mAh (29.97Wh), sourced to the original cell specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKM R36 Gasmaster platform:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The Gasmaster draws power through a tightly regulated internal BMS that governs sensor module activation, display backlight, and data logging simultaneously. This replacement pack matches the 11.1V three-cell lithium-polymer configuration the BMS expects — a voltage mismatch triggers a protection fault before the instrument even boots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through the KM R36 sensor initialisation sequence, which pulls a brief current spike as the gas detection module powers up. The BMS held without tripping, and the instrument completed startup and entered measurement mode without fault codes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePre-deployment calibration cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing this pack, run a full calibration cycle through the instrument menu before taking the unit into the field. The KM R36 maps battery state during calibration — skipping this step causes the instrument to display premature low-battery warnings during the first measurement session, even with a fully charged pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBMS lockout after the KM R36 sat unused in a carry case for months\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLithium-polymer cells self-discharge during storage. If the KM R36 pack drops below approximately 2.5V per cell, the BMS enters a protection lockout and the instrument shows no response — not even a low-battery screen. A standard charger may not recover the pack because the BMS blocks charge input at this voltage. To attempt recovery, connect the charger and leave it for 30–60 minutes without forcing a power-on — some BMS controllers re-initialise once they detect a trickle charge signal above the lockout threshold. If the pack recovers to 9V or higher at the instrument terminals, normal charging resumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eReadings drift or reset partway through a logging session\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eMid-session resets in the KM R36 are almost always a voltage dropout event, not a software fault. Under sustained sensor load — particularly when multiple gas channels are active — the pack voltage sags momentarily below the instrument's minimum operating threshold, causing the processor to restart. This happens most often with aged cells that can no longer hold voltage under load, even when the indicator shows adequate charge. Replace the pack and verify the resting voltage reads at least 11.1V before the next logging session — a pack reading below 10.5V at rest will sag further under sensor draw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360526696538,"sku":"BWCS-KMR360SL-1","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360526729306,"sku":"BWCS-KMR360SL-2","price":48.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360526762074,"sku":"BWCS-KMR360SL-3","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-KMR360SL-1.webp?v=1778615946","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/kanomax-km-r36-gasmaster-replacement-battery-111v-2700mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
