It matches the original pack's voltage rail and physical footprint. Capacity figure is 2100mAh as specced — do not substitute values from third-party listings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFA-277 \/ FA-278 \/ FA-292 \/ FA-294 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 6V battery bay and connector format. The BMS in each body expects the same voltage threshold at startup, so one cell spec covers the group 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 charge and discharge on a Siemens FA-series body. The BMS accepted the cell on the first recognised charge cycle and reported battery status without fault flags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-cycle initialisation on Siemens bodies:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Run the first full charge through the OEM charger or camera body before shooting. Some Siemens FA-series bodies only calibrate the battery-remaining indicator after completing one charge cycle from inside the camera — skipping this step can cause the display to read inaccurately until the cycle is done.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eFlash recycling slowing down on a new Siemens FA-series cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eFlash capacitor recharge pulls a short but sharp current spike after every shot. Ni-MH cells handle this well when fresh, but if the cell hasn't completed its first full charge cycle, available current at the terminals is lower than rated. This makes the flash take longer to recycle between frames. Run one complete charge before any flash-heavy shooting and the recharge interval returns to normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery percentage jumping around on the FA-277 display\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe FA-277's fuel gauge maps voltage thresholds to percentage steps. A new Ni-MH cell has a flatter discharge curve than a worn original, so the camera's lookup table can misread the state of charge and show jumps — for example, dropping from 80% to 40% in a few shots. This isn't a faulty cell. Performing one full charge and discharge cycle inside the camera body lets the BMS relearn the curve and stabilise the readout. After that cycle, percentage steps should track evenly down to the low-battery cutoff near 4.8V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333885395034,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333885427802,"sku":"BWCS-PDHV20-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333885460570,"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\/siemens-fa-277-replacement-battery-6v-2100mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
