Kodak KLIC-7006 EasyShare M22 Replacement Battery 3.7V 660mAh

Kodak EasyShare M22 / M23 / M52 / M200 Series — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (KLIC-7006)

This is a 3.7V Li-ion replacement battery rated at 660mAh (2.44Wh), built to the KLIC-7006 specification. It fits the Kodak EasyShare M22, M23, M52, M200, and over 35 additional EasyShare compact camera bodies. Slot it into any of those models and it powers the sensor, display, and flash circuits exactly as the original does.

• EasyShare compact series compatibility: These camera bodies share a common 3.7V single-cell architecture with the same physical footprint and contact layout. The KLIC-7006 cell slots into any of them without modification — the BMS reads cell voltage on insertion, not a manufacturer ID code.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through full charge and discharge on the EasyShare platform and confirmed the BMS accepted the cell, the battery-remaining indicator stepped through its threshold levels correctly, and the flash capacitor recharged at expected current draw throughout the discharge curve.
• First-use charge cycle on EasyShare bodies: Insert the battery and charge it fully inside the camera body before your first shoot. Some EasyShare models calibrate their fuel gauge against the charge curve from the camera's own charging circuit — skipping this step can cause the indicator to read inaccurately from the start.

Flash recycling time slowing down before the battery indicator drops

The flash capacitor in EasyShare compact bodies draws a short, sharp burst of current each time it recharges between shots. As the cell voltage sags toward the lower end of its discharge curve, that recharge takes longer — even when the camera's indicator still shows one or two bars remaining. This happens because the battery-level display maps to average voltage, not peak-current delivery. If flash recycling slows noticeably, the cell is approaching its cutoff voltage. Check cell voltage with a multimeter — if it reads below 3.5V under no load, you're at the end of that charge cycle.

Battery percentage jumping erratically on the EasyShare display

EasyShare bodies map the battery indicator to a fixed set of voltage thresholds calibrated against the original cell's discharge curve. A replacement cell can have a slightly different discharge profile — flatter through the mid-range, then steeper at the end — which causes the indicator to skip steps or jump backward. This is a display calibration issue, not a cell fault. Running two or three full charge and discharge cycles inside the camera body lets the BMS learn the new cell's curve and stabilise the readout. After conditioning, the indicator should step down consistently without jumping.
