It replaces the original INR18650-2S2P 2S2P cell pack when the factory battery no longer holds charge. Swap it in to restore audio playback and wireless connectivity without replacing the whole speaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDNA MAX compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The 2S2P 18650 configuration matches the voltage rail and connector spec the DNA MAX amplifier board expects. A mismatch here trips the onboard BMS and blocks power delivery entirely — this pack keeps the handshake clean.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through charge cycles on the DNA MAX platform and confirmed the BMS balanced both cell pairs correctly, with no mid-cycle cutoff or voltage spike at full-charge termination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDischarge discipline for the DNA MAX:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The DNA MAX is typically used as a desktop speaker and topped off constantly. Let the pack drop below 20% at least once a month before recharging — continuous shallow cycling without a full discharge causes fuel gauge drift and accelerates cell capacity fade over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eAudio distortion on the DNA MAX before the battery indicator reaches empty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe DNA MAX amplifier draws a sharp current spike at high playback volume. When cell voltage sags under that combined amplifier and Bluetooth radio load, the amp clips before the battery gauge registers low. This isn't a speaker fault — it's voltage sag crossing the amplifier's minimum input threshold. A degraded or deeply discharged pack hits that sag point much earlier in the discharge curve than a fresh cell will.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eDNA MAX not waking from USB-C charge after sitting unused for weeks\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA deeply discharged Li-ion pack can fall below the USB-C PD minimum acceptance voltage, so the charger handshake never initialises and the speaker appears completely dead. The BMS blocks charge input as a protection measure when cell voltage drops too low. To recover the pack, connect it to a charger that supports trickle or pre-charge mode and leave it for 15–20 minutes before expecting the speaker to respond. If the cell voltage is at or above 2.5V per cell, the BMS will accept the trickle current and begin recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43416194056282,"sku":"BWCS-MDX486SL-1","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43416194089050,"sku":"BWCS-MDX486SL-2","price":51.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43416194121818,"sku":"BWCS-MDX486SL-3","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-MDX486SL-1.webp?v=1779760742","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/monster-dna-max-replacement-battery-74v-5200mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
