It slots into the handset battery compartment and connects to the charging contacts that feed from the base station. Voltage and capacity match the original pack exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS60528 handset fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The S60528 uses a 3.6V single-cell NiMH pack sized to fit the handset cavity — 54.46 x 32.07 x 11.22mm. That footprint and voltage rail determine what fits. This pack matches both.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through charge and discharge on the bench. The BMS accepted charge current from the base station without triggering an error state, and voltage held stable across RF transmit events.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst charge protocol for NiMH handsets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing, seat the handset in the base and leave it for a full 16 hours before using it. NiMH cells in cordless phones need that slow first charge to reach rated capacity — cutting it short leaves usable charge on the table for the first several cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBase station showing charging error on a new NiMH pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA fresh NiMH battery can arrive from storage at a low resting voltage — sometimes below the threshold the S60528 base uses to confirm a valid pack is seated. When the base sees that low voltage, it flags an error light instead of beginning a charge cycle. The fix is straightforward: place the handset in the base and leave it undisturbed. Most base stations on this platform will retry and begin trickle charging once the pack voltage climbs above roughly 3.0V. If the error persists after 30 minutes, remove the handset, wait 10 seconds, and reseat it to prompt another detection cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eRange dropping off mid-call after battery replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eReduced range after a battery swap usually points to voltage sag under RF transmit load, not a faulty battery. When a NiMH pack hasn't completed conditioning cycles, its internal resistance is higher than it will be after 3–5 full charge-discharge cycles. Under the burst current demand of the DECT transmitter, voltage dips and the handset pulls back transmit power to compensate. Run 3–5 full cycles — full charge, then use until the low-battery indicator appears — and range typically restores to normal as internal resistance drops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43340076351578,"sku":"BWCS-P401CL-1","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43340076384346,"sku":"BWCS-P401CL-2","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43340076417114,"sku":"BWCS-P401CL-3","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-P401CL-1.webp?v=1778367047","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/southwestern-bell-s60528-replacement-battery-36v-1200mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
