It fits the CC-8251, CC8251, Pro 598, Pro 698H, and nine additional RCA compact camera models. Voltage and cell dimensions match the original spec exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCC-8251 and Pro-series compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These RCA cameras share the same battery bay geometry, 7.4V two-cell configuration, and connector pinout. The BB-65L form factor slots across all listed models without modification to the door latch or contact spring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on an RCA camera body. The BMS accepted the cell without a rejection flag, the charge indicator progressed normally, and the protection circuit tripped cleanly at the low-voltage cutoff threshold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-install charge cycle on RCA bodies:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Insert the battery and charge it fully inside the camera body before shooting. RCA's battery-remaining indicator calibrates its voltage-to-percentage map during that first in-body charge cycle — skipping it can cause the indicator to read inaccurately from the start.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCamera showing dead battery indicator on a partially charged BB-65L replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eRCA compact cameras map battery percentage to a voltage curve stored from the original cell's discharge profile. A new BB-65L has a slightly different resting voltage at partial states of charge than an aged original cell. The camera's fuel gauge reads that voltage, mismatches it against the stored curve, and jumps straight to the empty indicator. One full charge and discharge cycle inside the camera body resets the mapping. After that cycle, the indicator tracks the actual charge state correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery percentage jumping erratically during video recording\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eSustained video recording pulls current from the sensor, processor, and image stabilisation simultaneously. That combined draw causes a larger voltage sag mid-discharge than the camera's indicator curve expects. The percentage display reacts to each voltage dip as though the cell is nearly empty, then recovers when the draw eases. This is a display calibration artefact, not cell failure — confirm by checking the resting voltage with a multimeter after shooting; a healthy BB-65L should read above 7.0V at what the camera calls 20%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333898469466,"sku":"BWCS-SVBD1-1","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333898502234,"sku":"BWCS-SVBD1-2","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333898535002,"sku":"BWCS-SVBD1-3","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SVBD1-1.webp?v=1778213591","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/rca-cc-8251-replacement-battery-74v-2000mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
