It matches the original form factor and connects directly to the device's charge IC and fuel gauge circuit. Install it when the original cell no longer holds a useful charge across a normal day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydro Edge and C5215 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models run the same 3.7V single-cell architecture with an identical connector and BMS handshake protocol. One cell fits both.\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 a Hydro Edge unit. The BMS accepted the cell without error flags, and the charge IC completed a full constant-current to constant-voltage transition at 4.2V as expected.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing this cell, run one complete discharge to around 5% before charging to 100%. This gives the Kyocera fuel gauge IC a full sweep of the new cell's discharge curve. Skipping this step causes the OS to report percentages calibrated to the old degraded cell.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Hydro Edge reports wrong battery percentage after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Hydro Edge uses a coulomb-counter fuel gauge IC that learns the cell's capacity over charge cycles. When you swap in a new cell, the IC still holds the old cell's learned parameters — so the percentage readout is mapped to a degraded capacity baseline, not 1300mAh. The phone may show 50% when the cell is actually near full, or drop from 30% to 0% without warning. One full discharge-to-charge cycle forces the IC to relearn against the new cell curve and corrects the readout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the replacement cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the modem or display pulls a current spike that drops the cell voltage below the BMS cutoff threshold — typically around 3.0V — even though the gauge still shows charge remaining. A new cell that hasn't been calibrated to the fuel gauge IC is most vulnerable to this on the first few cycles. Run the recalibration cycle first: discharge to 5%, charge uninterrupted to 100%, then repeat once more. After two full cycles, the fuel gauge tracks the actual voltage floor accurately and the shutdowns stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43404302549082,"sku":"BWCS-KYC521SL-1","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43404302581850,"sku":"BWCS-KYC521SL-2","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43404302614618,"sku":"BWCS-KYC521SL-3","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-KYC521SL-1.webp?v=1779369643","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/kyocera-hydro-edge-replacement-battery-37v-1300mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
