It fits CECHA01, CECHB01, and related PS3 motherboard variants. When the original cell fails, the console loses its real-time clock and system settings every time mains power is cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCECHA01 and CECHB01 board fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These early PS3 motherboard revisions use the same CR2032-LC1 footprint and contact spring geometry. The RTC circuit draws from the coin cell continuously — even in standby — so the cell depletes over years regardless of how often the console is used.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We confirmed the cell seats correctly in the CMOS socket and holds stable voltage across the RTC circuit. The BMS-free design means the cell delivers full 3V to the SRAM and clock lines from the moment of installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClock correction after swap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting the new cell, power on the PS3 and set the correct date and time manually via System Settings — the RTC circuit resets to a default value after any cell change, and the console will show an incorrect date until you save updated settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePS3 clock resetting to a default date after every power cycle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe PS3 RTC circuit requires a minimum of 2.8V from the CMOS cell to retain the clock and settings when mains power is removed. Once the original CR2032-LC1 drops below that threshold, the SRAM loses its state and the clock reverts to a factory default on every cold boot. Simply replacing the cell restores retention voltage above 2.8V. After fitting, confirm the cell is fully seated against the contact spring — a loose connection causes the same symptom even with a fresh cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eNew CR2032-LC1 reads low voltage immediately after installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eCR2032 cells ship in a storage state and may measure slightly below 3.0V straight out of packaging — this is normal and not a defect. Once installed and under the light load of the RTC circuit, the cell stabilises at 3.0V within a short period. If a multimeter shows below 2.8V on a brand-new cell, check the contact spring in the CMOS socket for oxidation or deformation from the previous cell. Clean the spring contact with isopropyl alcohol and confirm a firm seating before suspecting the cell itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43339832590426,"sku":"BWCS-SP130BU-1","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43339832623194,"sku":"BWCS-SP130BU-2","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43339832655962,"sku":"BWCS-SP130BU-3","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SP130BU-1.webp?v=1778366811","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/sony-ps3-replacement-battery-3v-200mah-lithium","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
