These early-2000s compact phones share a common battery bay and connector, so one cell covers the whole family. Capacity is 2.22Wh, matching the original specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC330 \/ C331 \/ C332 \/ C333 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    All four handsets use the same 3.7V single-cell pack with an identical connector pitch and locking tab. The BMS handshake on each model expects the same charge termination voltage, so the cell slots in without wiring changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through a full discharge and charge sequence on the C333 platform. The BMS accepted the cell on first connect, charge termination triggered correctly at 4.2V, and the protection circuit tripped cleanly on a simulated over-discharge event below 2.5V.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this cell, run one complete discharge down to automatic shutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100% before normal use. The C333 fuel gauge IC uses a stored discharge curve from the old cell — one full cycle overwrites it with the new cell's actual curve, so percentage readings stay accurate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the C333 reports wrong battery percentage after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe C333 stores a learned discharge curve in the fuel gauge IC — built up over hundreds of cycles on the original cell. When a new cell goes in, the IC still references that old curve. The mismatch means the phone can report 40% remaining while the actual cell voltage is already near cutoff. One full uninterrupted discharge-to-charge cycle forces the IC to relearn against the new cell's real voltage profile. After that cycle, percentage readouts track accurately.\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 cell voltage drops below the modem's minimum rail during a transmit burst — even though the fuel gauge still reads 20–30%. A new Li-ion cell at 600mAh has a steep voltage cliff toward the bottom of its discharge curve. The phone's processor detects the voltage sag and shuts down to protect the BMS, regardless of the displayed percentage. After the fuel gauge recalibration cycle described above, the shutoff point moves back in line with the cell's actual usable range — expect clean operation down to roughly 3.4V under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409504632922,"sku":"BWCS-MOC331SL-1","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409504665690,"sku":"BWCS-MOC331SL-2","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409504698458,"sku":"BWCS-MOC331SL-3","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-MOC331SL-big.webp?v=1779579852","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/motorola-c333-replacement-battery-37v-600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
