It replaces OEM part numbers including 1CVA157, 1CVA158C, 244265, 244427, and BB700. The cell restores flash charging, image capture, and full camera operation when the original battery has depleted or failed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutoShot CC-series platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The CC-174 through CC-180 share the same 6V power rail, connector pinout, and battery cavity dimensions. This cell fits that slot directly — no adapter, no modification. The 89.10 x 46.50 x 19.10mm form factor matches the original pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through full charge and discharge cycles on AutoShot-series hardware. The BMS accepted the cell without rejection flags, flash capacitor recharge current drew as expected, and voltage held stable across multiple successive shots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-cycle flash priming:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On the CC-174 and similar bodies, run one complete charge cycle through the OEM charger before your first shoot. Flash capacitors in these compact film cameras draw peak current during recharge — a partially primed cell can show erratic flash recycling until the cell has completed one full cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eFlash output dropping mid-shoot on a new AutoShot battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells have a flatter discharge curve than alkaline packs, which the AutoShot's flash circuit was tuned around. When a replacement cell is fresh off the shelf and hasn't been fully conditioned, internal resistance is slightly elevated. This causes the capacitor recharge current to sag earlier in the discharge cycle, so flash recycle slows noticeably before the battery indicator shows low. One full charge-discharge cycle brings internal resistance down to spec and restores consistent flash output throughout the charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCamera showing dead battery indicator on a partially charged replacement cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe AutoShot CC-series reads battery state using a voltage-threshold map tuned to the original cell's discharge curve. A new Ni-MH cell that hasn't been cycled yet can sit at a resting voltage that falls outside the camera's expected range, triggering a false low-battery or dead indicator. This is not a fault with the cell. Charge the replacement fully in the OEM charger, then power the camera on — the indicator typically reads correctly once the cell reaches its rated resting voltage of approximately 1.2V per cell across the six-cell pack, giving a nominal 7.2V resting state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333884641370,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333884674138,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333884706906,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-3","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PDHV20-1.webp?v=1778213555","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/rca-autoshot-cc-174-replacement-battery-6v-2100mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
