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.

Nokia 105 4G (2023) — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (BL-5C / BL-5CA)
This 3.7V, 1200mAh Li-ion cell replaces the Nokia BL-5C and BL-5CA batteries across the Nokia 105 4G (2023), 105 (2023), 1100, 1101, and over 86 additional Nokia models. It fits the original battery slot without modification and restores calling, messaging, and basic feature operation. Capacity is 4.44Wh — matched to the OEM specification for these devices.
- BL-5C platform compatibility: Nokia used the BL-5C footprint across a wide range of feature phones sharing the same 3.7V rail, connector pitch, and BMS communication protocol. That consistency is why one cell covers so many models — the electrical interface is identical across the range.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on a Nokia 105 4G (2023) test unit. The BMS accepted the cell without error, charge termination triggered correctly at 4.2V, and the protection circuit tripped at the expected low-voltage threshold.
- Fuel gauge recalibration on first use: After fitting the new cell, run one full discharge down to automatic shutdown, then charge uninterrupted to 100% before using the phone normally. The Nokia fuel gauge IC was calibrated to the old cell's discharge curve — one complete cycle resets it to the new cell so percentage readings are accurate.
Why the Nokia 105 4G shuts down suddenly at 20–30% battery remaining
This is a voltage cliff failure, not a capacity problem. As a Li-ion cell ages, its internal resistance rises. Under the load of an active call or 4G data session, the terminal voltage drops sharply even when the state-of-charge reading still shows charge remaining. The BMS trips the cutoff to protect the cell before the fuel gauge catches up to the real state. A fresh cell with lower internal resistance eliminates the voltage sag, and one full recalibration cycle after fitting will align the percentage readout with actual capacity.
Phone not powering on after the replacement cell sat in storage
Li-ion cells self-discharge during storage. If this cell dropped below approximately 2.5V per cell before installation, the BMS may have entered lockout mode and will refuse to pass current to the phone. Connect the phone to a wall charger — not a PC USB port — and leave it for 15–20 minutes without attempting to power on. Most Nokia BMS circuits will begin a trickle pre-charge at around 50mA to bring the cell voltage back above the lockout threshold before enabling full charge current. If the charging indicator does not appear within 30 minutes, try a different charger capable of at least 5V 1A output.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Nokia 105 4G show the wrong battery percentage after fitting the new cell?
The fuel gauge IC inside the phone was calibrated to the discharge curve of the old, degraded cell. When a new cell goes in, the stored calibration data no longer matches the actual cell chemistry, so the percentage readout drifts — often jumping or stopping at an unexpected level. Run one complete discharge to automatic shutdown, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. That single cycle gives the coulomb counter enough data to remap its calibration to the new cell. After that, percentage readings stabilise.
The phone feels warm near the battery while charging the new cell — is that normal?
A new high-impedance cell generates slightly more heat than a broken-in one during the constant-current charge phase. The charge IC pushes current into a cell that hasn't yet settled to its steady-state internal resistance, which produces more heat than you'd see after a few cycles. As long as the phone is warm — not hot to the touch — and the warmth fades once charging completes, this is within normal range. If it stays hot after the charge indicator clears, check that the charger output is 5V and not exceeding 1A for this device.
My Nokia 105 (2023) won't fast charge after I swapped the battery — what's happening?
On the first cycle after a cell swap, some Nokia charge controllers hold the charge rate conservative until the BMS on the new cell has completed one full handshake sequence. The phone may charge at a reduced current rate initially — this is the charge IC being cautious with an uncalibrated cell. Complete one full discharge and charge cycle at standard rate before expecting full charge speed to restore. If reduced charge speed persists beyond two full cycles, confirm the charger output matches Nokia's specified input — 5V 1A for this model.
