These units are used in law enforcement and security fieldwork where continuous recording is critical. Dimensions are 71.50 x 33.10 x 24.50mm — the pack slots into the same bay as the original without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWV-BWC4000 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    All four models in this series share the same 3.6V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol, which is why one replacement cell covers the full range including the i-Pro rebranded variant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through the WV-BWC4000's power-up self-check sequence. The BMS negotiated correctly, the camera passed its internal diagnostics, and the battery indicator displayed a full-charge state without error flags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShift-start verification:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After inserting this battery, power the camera on before leaving base and confirm the ready-status indicator clears. The BWC4000 runs a firmware self-check on every cold start — skipping this step in the field means you may not catch a rejected battery until recording has already failed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRecording cuts out mid-incident on the WV-BWC4000\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe BWC4000 draws simultaneously from the battery for video encoding, cellular upload, and GPS logging when all features are active. That combined load can spike high enough to trigger the BMS protection circuit, which cuts power to protect the cell. The camera will appear to freeze or stop recording without warning. To recover, power cycle the unit — the BMS resets on restart and recording resumes normally from that point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery indicator showing low after a short recording session\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA new Li-ion cell often reads lower than expected for the first few cycles because the BMS hasn't yet calibrated its state-of-charge model to the actual cell capacity. This is not a fault with the battery. Run two or three full discharge-and-charge cycles through normal camera use and the indicator will stabilise. If the reading still drops rapidly after three cycles, check that the camera's firmware is current — outdated firmware can misreport charge levels against the 57588-001 cell spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333514952794,"sku":"BWCS-PWC400MC-1","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333514985562,"sku":"BWCS-PWC400MC-2","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333515018330,"sku":"BWCS-PWC400MC-3","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PWC400MC-1.webp?v=1778212955","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/panasonic-wv-bwc4000-replacement-battery-36v-2600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
