Battery Care Tips
Battery Care Tips
🔹 Getting Started
Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.
🔹 Keep It Healthy
Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.
Delivery and Shipping
Delivery and Shipping
🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

MTC 874FT Mobile Hotspot — 3.8V Li-ion Replacement Battery (B1501)
This is a 3.8V, 2200mAh Li-ion replacement battery for the MTC 874FT mobile hotspot. It fits the B1501 OEM part number and slots directly into the 874FT chassis. If your original battery no longer sustains a hotspot session through normal daily use, this is the correct replacement cell.
- 874FT platform fit: The 874FT runs a combined cellular modem and Wi-Fi radio off a single 3.8V cell. Both radios share the same power rail, so voltage tolerance and connector polarity must match exactly. This battery meets those spec requirements.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell under simultaneous modem and Wi-Fi load. The BMS held stable output without triggering low-voltage cutoff under multi-device connection stress.
- Ventilation during extended sessions: Keep the 874FT on a hard, flat surface — not a cushion or bag pocket — during long hotspot sessions. When connected devices are far from the hotspot, the cellular radio runs at full output power. That extra heat sits directly on the battery if airflow is blocked.
Why the 874FT disconnects users mid-session under full load
When the 874FT is serving the maximum number of connected devices, both the LTE modem and the Wi-Fi radio draw peak current simultaneously. This combined load pulls the 3.8V cell harder than any single-radio scenario. If the cell has aged or is partially discharged, voltage sags below the BMS cutoff threshold and the device resets — dropping all connected users. A fresh, fully charged cell eliminates that sag margin issue.
874FT won't power on after sitting unused for several weeks
Li-ion cells self-discharge slowly during storage. If the 874FT sits unused long enough, the battery drops below the minimum boot voltage — typically around 3.0V for a 3.8V nominal cell. At that level, the device shows no response to the power button. Connect the hotspot to a charger for at least 15–20 minutes before attempting to power on; most BMS circuits need to detect a minimum charge threshold before they allow the device to boot.

Frequently Asked Questions
My 874FT keeps dropping all connected devices for a few seconds and then reconnecting — is the battery causing this?
Yes, this is voltage sag under combined modem and Wi-Fi draw. When multiple devices are connected simultaneously, the current demand spikes and an aged or low cell dips below the BMS cutoff threshold, triggering a brief reset. A replacement battery with full cell capacity removes that voltage floor problem. Charge the new cell completely before your first session.
The 874FT battery seems to drain much faster when I'm in an area with weak signal — is something wrong with the replacement cell?
Nothing is wrong. In poor signal areas, the LTE modem continuously increases transmit power trying to maintain the network connection — this is standard cellular behaviour, not a battery fault. That elevated radio draw pulls significantly more current from the 3.8V cell than normal conditions. Move the hotspot closer to a window or elevated position to improve signal strength and reduce modem output power.
The 874FT won't turn on at all after I left it in a drawer for a month — did the new battery fail?
The battery likely self-discharged below the minimum boot voltage during storage. Plug the 874FT into its charger and leave it connected for at least 20 minutes without pressing the power button. The BMS needs to detect enough charge to re-enable output before the device can start. If the indicator light comes on during that window, the battery is recovering — wait for it to reach at least 3.2V before powering on.
