It delivers 2700mAh (16.2Wh) to power the locking mechanism, keypad, and access control electronics. Swap it in when the existing battery depletes and the lock stops responding or starts issuing low-power warnings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoor lock power architecture:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Electronic door locks run the motor, keypad backlight, Bluetooth radio, and BLE handshake stack from a single cell. The DL-8 format consolidates that load into one unit rather than splitting it across multiple AA or coin cells, which keeps voltage sag lower during motor actuation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran the DL-8 through repeated lock and unlock cycles, measuring voltage under the motor-start surge. The cell held above threshold without triggering a low-battery interrupt, and the keypad and Bluetooth stack remained active throughout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap access method check:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, test every access method — keypad PIN, Bluetooth app, keycard or fob — before closing the door. Some locks run a firmware handshake after power interruption that must complete before all access credentials become active again.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the lock motor sounds slow or laboured after a battery swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA sluggish motor on the first few cycles is usually a voltage issue, not a mechanical one. Alkaline cells stored near their lower limit — around 5.4V for a 6V pack — can't sustain the current spike the motor demands at startup. The lock may complete the cycle but audibly struggle. Use a fresh cell and verify open-circuit voltage sits at or above 6V before installation. If the symptom persists after a confirmed fresh battery, check the lock mechanism for debris or alignment issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eLock still shows low-battery warning immediately after fitting a new DL-8\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the lock reads the battery voltage before the cell stabilises under load, or when the replacement battery sat in storage long enough to lose capacity. Alkaline cells self-discharge slowly but measurably — a cell stored for two or more years may read below the lock's warning threshold even at rest. Remove the battery, wait ten seconds, then reinsert it to force the lock to re-read the voltage. If the warning clears, the initial reading was a transient; if it returns, replace with a cell from a fresher batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360223920218,"sku":"BWCS-DRL120SL-1","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360223952986,"sku":"BWCS-DRL120SL-2","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360223985754,"sku":"BWCS-DRL120SL-3","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-DRL120SL-1.webp?v=1778610981","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/power-xp-replacement-battery-6v-2700mah-alkaline","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
