It fits the Renaissance II, model 49221900, and PB700 platforms. Voltage and capacity match the original specification — the concentrator's compressor and oxygen generation system draw exactly what this cell is rated to supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRenaissance II \/ PB700 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 4.8V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. One cell pack covers all three listed variants without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through the Renaissance II's full charge-discharge profile. The BMS accepted the cell on first insertion, completed its verification handshake, and held charge without triggering a fault code across multiple load cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap self-test protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing this battery, let the Renaissance II complete its full power-on self-test without interruption. The device runs a BMS verification sequence at startup — cutting power during this window writes a false battery fault to memory that persists until a complete reboot and clean restart.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Renaissance II alarms low battery with a freshly charged replacement installed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Renaissance II BMS calibrates its charge threshold against the OEM cell's established charge curve. A new Ni-MH cell hasn't built that history yet — its internal resistance reads slightly higher on the first few cycles, which the BMS interprets as a low-capacity pack. This is a learn-cycle artefact, not a fault with the replacement cell. Run one complete charge-discharge cycle and the BMS recalibrates its baseline. The alarm clears on its own once the cell passes the internal threshold check, typically after that first full cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRenaissance II won't power on after the replacement cell sat in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells self-discharge over time, and a pack that's been sitting in storage may drop below the Renaissance II's BMS recovery threshold — typically around 4.0V for a 4.8V pack. Below that voltage, the BMS treats the cell as damaged and blocks startup to protect the concentrator's electronics. Place the pack on charge for a full uninterrupted cycle before attempting to power on the device. If the charger indicates a fault rather than charging, check the pack voltage with a multimeter — a reading above 3.8V means the BMS can still recover the cell with a slow charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381457813594,"sku":"BWCS-PRB100MD-1","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381457846362,"sku":"BWCS-PRB100MD-2","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381457879130,"sku":"BWCS-PRB100MD-3","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PRB100MD-1.webp?v=1778901015","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/puritan-bennett-renaissance-ii-replacement-battery-48v-1800mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
