It replaces OEM part 533-000050 and fits the XR0001 and X-R0001 remote handsets. When the original battery fades, the remote loses IR output before it loses power entirely — this swap restores full signal strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSqueezebox Radio XR0001 and X-R0001 remotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both remote variants share the same 12V Ni-MH cell stack, connector format, and BMS handshake — one battery covers both. The 10-cell AA-format Ni-MH pack is a direct physical and electrical match for either model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this battery through charge and discharge on the Squeezebox remote platform. The BMS accepted the charge curve without fault flags, and IR output held at full strength across the discharge range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-cell replacement tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    This is a 10-cell pack — replace it as a unit, not alongside the original. Running a partially depleted old pack in parallel with a new one causes the new cells to drain faster compensating for the weaker pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy Ni-MH voltage sag kills IR output before the remote feels \"dead\"\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells under load drop voltage more sharply than alkaline as they age. The IR LED in the Squeezebox remote needs a consistent voltage threshold to fire at full power. Once the pack sags below that threshold under transmit load, the remote appears sluggish or short-range — even though a no-load voltage check might still read acceptable. Replacing the pack restores the sustained current the LED circuit needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRemote stops responding entirely after battery install\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe most common cause is reversed polarity on the connector. The 10-cell pack has a keyed connector, but it can be seated incorrectly if forced. Check that the red wire aligns with the positive terminal marked inside the remote bay. If polarity is correct and the remote still shows no response, verify the pack is charged — Ni-MH ships partially discharged and needs a full charge cycle before use. A full charge brings the pack to approximately 14.4V open circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43416106434650,"sku":"BWCS-LSR533RC-1","price":50.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43416106467418,"sku":"BWCS-LSR533RC-2","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43416106500186,"sku":"BWCS-LSR533RC-3","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-LSR533RC-1.webp?v=1779760264","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/logitech-squeezebox-radio-replacement-battery-12v-2000mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
