It fits the same connector and BMS handshake as the factory pack. Dimensions are 54.39 × 32.92 × 5.20mm — verify clearance before ordering if your unit has an aftermarket housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOPL-9700 family compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 3.7V power rail, physical connector, and BMS communication protocol. One cell serves the full lineup without modification or adapter wiring.\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 OPL-9700 dock and monitored BMS handshake at rest voltage, during scan trigger inrush, and during active wireless polling. The protection circuit held cutoff within spec on all three draw events.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-shift charging protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing, seat the scanner in its cradle and run a full charge cycle before use. Scan trigger inrush current peaks when the cell is near minimum state of charge — a pre-charged cell prevents false BMS trips that can look like a faulty battery on the first shift.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCradle showing charging error on a new pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe OPL-9700 dock reads battery state through gold contact pins on the base of the scanner. Oxidation or residue on those contacts raises resistance, which the dock firmware can misread as a fault rather than a legitimate low-voltage cell. Wipe both the pack contacts and the dock contacts with a dry cloth, reseat the scanner, and confirm the amber charge indicator lights within 10 seconds. If the error clears, the pack is fine — the contact surface was the issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eScanner losing wireless connection during rapid scan bursts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eFast successive scans combine two simultaneous draws: the imager firing and the wireless radio transmitting scan data. On an aged or partially charged pack, this combined inrush can drop cell voltage below the BMS cutoff threshold momentarily, causing the radio stack to drop its connection. The scanner may appear to freeze or require a manual reconnect to the access point. Starting a shift with a fully charged pack keeps resting voltage above 3.7V, which gives enough headroom to absorb both draws without triggering the protection circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43324954640474,"sku":"BWCS-OPH970BL-1","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43324954673242,"sku":"BWCS-OPH970BL-2","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43324954706010,"sku":"BWCS-OPH970BL-3","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-OPH970BL-1.webp?v=1778123452","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/opticon-opl-9700-replacement-battery-37v-500mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
