It matches the original cell format, voltage, and connector footprint. Capacity figures are taken directly from product data — 12.6Wh total energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4003 and Smart Monitor 2 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both devices share the same 6V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. A single cell revision covers both platforms without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran charge-discharge cycles on the 4003 platform and confirmed the BMS accepted the new cell after the first full cycle. Charge termination triggered correctly at capacity. The self-test passed on the second power cycle without fault codes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-swap self-test procedure:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, let the device complete its full power-on self-test without interrupting it. The 4003 runs a BMS verification sequence at startup — cutting power mid-sequence logs a false battery fault that will persist on every subsequent boot until a clean full reboot clears the flag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the 4003 alarms low battery immediately after a confirmed full charge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe 4003's charge controller uses a delta-V termination algorithm calibrated against the original OEM cell's charge signature. A fresh Ni-MH cell has a flatter voltage curve in the first few cycles, so the controller reads the charge as incomplete even when the cell is full. The BMS threshold for the low-battery alarm is set against that same learned curve. Run one complete charge-discharge cycle and the controller recalibrates — the alarm clears and does not return. Confirm the cell has reached at least 6.0V open-circuit before clinical use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eDevice will not power on after the battery sat unused in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day. A cell stored for several months can drop below the BMS recovery threshold — typically around 4.5V for a 6V pack — and the protection circuit locks out power delivery entirely. The device will show no response at all: no LED, no boot sequence, nothing. Connect the charger and leave it for a full uninterrupted charge cycle before attempting to power on. If the charger LED indicates activity, the BMS has recovered and the cell will reach operating voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381368258650,"sku":"BWCS-RPS460MD-1","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381368291418,"sku":"BWCS-RPS460MD-2","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381368324186,"sku":"BWCS-RPS460MD-3","price":70.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-RPS460MD-1.webp?v=1778900303","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/respironics-4003-replacement-battery-6v-2100mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
