Panoramic V.360 HD Compatible Battery 3.7V 2600mAh LC18350-3P

Panoramic V.360 HD — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (LC18350-3P)

This 3.7V, 2600mAh Li-ion cell replaces the LC18350-3P battery in the Panoramic V.360 HD and V.360° HD 360-degree action cameras. It slots into the compact camera body using the original contact layout and connector spec. Voltage and capacity match the OEM cell exactly — 3.7V, 9.62Wh.

• V.360 HD and V.360° HD fit: Both model variants run the same LC18350-3P cell, the same 3.7V power rail, and the same BMS handshake. One replacement cell covers both listings without modification.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through full charge and discharge on the V.360 HD body. The BMS accepted the cell, reported charge state correctly, and held voltage under the combined sensor and video-encode load without tripping protection cutoff.
• First-cycle camera acceptance: On first install, charge the cell fully through the camera body before recording. Some 360-camera BMS controllers will not display accurate battery-remaining percentage until the camera has completed one full internal charge cycle from near-zero to full.

Why the V.360 HD shows a dead battery indicator on a replacement cell that still has charge

The V.360 HD maps its battery indicator to a fixed voltage-threshold table calibrated against the OEM cell's discharge curve. A new third-party cell can sit at 3.85V — which is a healthy mid-charge state — and still trigger the low-battery icon because the camera hasn't learned the new cell's curve. The fix is to complete one full charge cycle inside the camera body, starting from below 3.5V. After that cycle, the BMS recalibrates its threshold mapping against the actual cell and the indicator tracks correctly.

Battery percentage jumping erratically during 360-degree video recording

During continuous 360-degree recording, the V.360 HD draws current from the cell in uneven bursts — the image processor, dual-lens array, and video encoder all spike simultaneously at scene cuts or high-motion frames. These spikes pull cell voltage down sharply for short windows, which the camera reads as a steep drop in charge state. The percentage then recovers when the draw falls back. This is not a faulty cell — it reflects the camera reading instantaneous voltage rather than a smoothed average. If the jumps are severe, check that the cell is above 3.6V at rest before starting a long recording session.
