It powers the motorized brush roll and suction motor through the same BMS handshake the charger expects. Capacity figures are taken from the product data, not estimated from third-party sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIW4624 and IW4625 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models run the same 18V power rail and share an identical battery bay connector and BMS communication protocol — one cell covers both units without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through full charge and discharge on the IW4624 chassis. The BMS accepted the charger handshake immediately, and overcurrent protection triggered correctly under a simulated blocked-filter load before resetting cleanly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDock charging habit on the IW4624:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Do not leave this vacuum sitting on the charging dock permanently. Continuous trickle charge accelerates capacity fade in Li-ion stick vacuum batteries faster than nearly any other use pattern. Charge to full, then remove from the dock.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCordless vacuum losing suction before the battery indicator reaches low\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis is almost never a dead battery — it is usually motor voltage sag caused by a partially blocked filter forcing the motor to draw above its rated current. When airflow is restricted, the motor works harder, pulls more amps, and the BMS sees a sustained overcurrent condition before the cell is anywhere near depleted. The voltage at the motor terminals drops, suction weakens, and the battery indicator still reads mid-range because the cell itself has charge remaining. Clean or replace the foam and HEPA filters first, then retest suction before concluding the battery is the fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eMotor cuts out mid-clean then recovers after a few seconds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis is a BMS overcurrent trip, not a battery failure. On the IW4624, sustained restricted airflow — from a full dustbin, matted brush roll, or clogged post-motor filter — drives amp draw high enough that the BMS trips the output to protect the cell. The battery goes quiet, recovers in a few seconds, then powers back on. The fix is mechanical, not electrical: clear the blockage, empty the bin, and check that the brush roll spins freely. If the trip still occurs after clearing all restrictions, measure resting cell voltage — a healthy 18V Li-ion cell should read between 20.0V and 21.6V fully charged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426411642970,"sku":"BWCS-SHW462VX-1","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426411675738,"sku":"BWCS-SHW462VX-2","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426411708506,"sku":"BWCS-SHW462VX-3","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SHW462VX-1.webp?v=1779933239","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/shark-iw4624-replacement-battery-18v-3750mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
