Battery Care Tips
Battery Care Tips
🔹 Getting Started
Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.
🔹 Keep It Healthy
Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.
Delivery and Shipping
Delivery and Shipping
🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

President Randy 3 — 7.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (ACMR402)
This 7.4V, 1200mAh Li-ion battery replaces the ACMR402 pack in the President Randy 3, Randy III, Randy, and Randy II handheld CB radios. It fits the same connector and BMS interface as the original. Voltage and capacity figures are drawn directly from the manufacturer spec sheet.
- Randy series compatibility: The Randy, Randy II, Randy III, and Randy 3 all share the same 7.4V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. One pack covers the full lineup without modification.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack through full charge and discharge on the Randy 3 platform. The BMS handled PTT transmit current spikes without tripping, and the radio held its full TX power output across the discharge curve.
- First insertion into the charger dock: If the dock LED flashes fault on first seating, remove the pack, wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth, and reseat firmly. The Randy platform requires a clean contact cycle before it accepts the new BMS handshake and begins charging.
Why the Randy 3 drops to reduced TX power mid-conversation
An aged ACMR402 pack develops elevated internal impedance over time. When you press PTT, the transmit current draw pulls the pack voltage below the radio's RF output threshold faster than a fresh cell would allow. The radio responds by stepping down TX power to protect the circuit — this is not a radio fault. Fitting a new pack at full cell voltage resolves the sag and restores full output.
Bar indicator showing one fewer bar than expected after fitting a new pack
New Li-ion cells ship at storage voltage — typically around 3.7V per cell, which reads as roughly 7.4V at the pack terminals. The Randy 3's voltage-threshold bar indicator interprets this as a partially discharged state, not a full charge. This is normal and not a fault with the pack. Seat the battery in the dock and run a full charge cycle first; once the pack reaches 8.3–8.4V, the indicator will show the correct bar count.

Frequently Asked Questions
My Randy 3 cuts out completely the moment I press PTT — is that the battery or the radio?
That's a BMS overcurrent trip, not a radio fault. The PTT transmit current spike briefly exceeds what a degraded or deeply discharged pack can deliver, so the BMS shuts the pack down to protect the cells. Fit a fully charged replacement pack and press PTT again — if the radio transmits cleanly, the original pack was the cause. If it still cuts out on a charged new pack, check the battery contacts on the radio chassis for corrosion.
The charger dock LED has been blinking fault for two days and never clears — what's wrong?
The dock won't begin a charge cycle if the pack voltage has dropped below the dock's acceptance threshold, usually under 6V. A pack stored flat for an extended period can fall into this range and trigger a permanent fault blink. Remove the pack, check the contact strip is clean, reseat it, and hold it pressed into the dock for 10 seconds — some chargers require a manual contact hold to re-initialise the BMS and begin a recovery charge. If the fault clears, let the cycle run to completion before use.
The Randy 3 was working fine but now it powers off under RF load even though the bar indicator shows two bars — why?
Two bars on the Randy platform corresponds to a cell voltage that looks acceptable at rest but collapses under the sustained current draw of RF transmission. The cell's capacity has faded to the point where it cannot maintain voltage under load, even though the resting voltage still clears the two-bar threshold. This is a cell degradation issue, not a radio fault. Replace the ACMR402 pack and run a full charge cycle before the first transmission test.
