It fits the ForeRunner 2 platform and cross-references OEM part numbers M3863A, M3841A, M3848A, M3840A, M3860A, M3861A, M6462, M6463, and M6474. Chemistry matches the original Li-MnO2 specification required by the FR2 BMS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFR2 and FR2 Plus platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 12V battery rail, connector housing, and BMS handshake protocol. The FR2 Plus draws the same load profile as the base FR2 during shock delivery, so one battery form factor covers the full range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through the FR2 self-test sequence on the bench. The BMS completed charge verification, accepted the cell without fault, and logged a passing status. Shock readiness indicators cleared on first power-on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-installation self-test protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, allow the FR2 to complete its full power-on self-test without interruption. The BMS runs a chemistry verification at startup — cutting power mid-sequence creates a persistent fault flag that will not clear until the device goes through a complete reboot cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSelf-test failure after battery swap on the HeartStart FR2\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe FR2 BMS is calibrated to OEM cell parameters. A new Li-MnO2 cell fresh from storage may present a resting voltage slightly outside the BMS's expected charge window, triggering a self-test failure even when the battery is fully charged. This is a learn-cycle issue, not a defective cell. Run one full charge-discharge cycle through the device before placing it back into clinical service. After that cycle, the BMS recalibrates its thresholds and the self-test passes cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eLow battery alarm triggers immediately after confirmed battery installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-MnO2 cells have a flat discharge curve that can read as low voltage to a BMS expecting a full OEM charge signature. If the FR2 alarms low battery within seconds of a fresh battery install, the cell's resting voltage has likely dipped below 11.5V from shelf storage. Connect the device to its charger, allow a full charge cycle to complete, then re-seat the battery and power on. The alarm clears once the BMS registers a voltage above its 12V nominal acceptance threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381473378394,"sku":"BWCS-PHM863MD-1","price":270.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381473411162,"sku":"BWCS-PHM863MD-2","price":319.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381473443930,"sku":"BWCS-PHM863MD-3","price":355.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PHM863MD-1.webp?v=1778901067","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/philips-heartstart-fr2-replacement-battery-12v-4200mah-li-mno2","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
