It matches OEM part number 170-0737 and fits the original battery bay without modification. If your Palm III no longer holds charge or powers down unexpectedly, this cell restores normal operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalm III family compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The III, IIIc, IIIe, and IIIx all share the same 3.7V battery bay, connector pinout, and charge circuit. One cell fits the entire lineup without adapter or rewiring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through the Palm III charge circuit and confirmed the BMS accepted a full charge cycle without triggering protection cutoff. The device booted cleanly and held the OS in RAM across a full power cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSync before you swap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The Palm III stores all contacts, calendar entries, and application data in SRAM powered directly by the main battery. Removing the battery without first syncing to a host computer via HotSync will erase everything in RAM. Run HotSync, confirm the backup completed, then swap the cell.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Palm III loses all data when the battery dies\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Palm III uses battery-backed SRAM rather than flash storage. Every record — contacts, memos, calendar events, installed apps — lives in volatile memory that requires continuous power to survive. When the battery fully discharges or is physically removed, the SRAM loses its charge within seconds and wipes clean. A fresh HotSync session before the swap is the only way to protect that data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePalm III shows empty screen and won't boot after new battery install\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA freshly installed replacement cell may carry insufficient charge to meet the Palm III's minimum boot voltage threshold. The OS load draws a short current spike the depleted cell cannot sustain, so the device stalls at a blank screen. Connect the unit to the cradle or charging cable and let it charge for at least one hour before attempting to power on. Once the cell reaches approximately 3.5V, the boot sequence will complete normally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43415956521050,"sku":"BWCS-PMIIICSL-1","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43415956553818,"sku":"BWCS-PMIIICSL-2","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43415956586586,"sku":"BWCS-PMIIICSL-3","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PMIIICSL-1.webp?v=1779758481","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/palm-iii-replacement-battery-37v-1600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
