It fits the SpectraLink 8742 handset and related models in the PBL874xx family, including the Pivot 8741. Install it when the original pack no longer holds a charge or the handset shuts off mid-call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8742 and PBL874xx family fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These handsets share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and 3.7V supply rail. The BBK87120 footprint — 95.70 × 57.80 × 7.80 mm — seats correctly in all listed models without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on a SpectraLink 8742 unit. The BMS accepted the charge from the base station cradle without fault, and voltage held stable under the RF transmit load the handset pulls during active calls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-charge protocol for Li-ion cordless handsets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing, seat the handset in the base cradle for an uninterrupted full charge before the first call. Storage discharge means this cell may arrive below 3.4V — the handset firmware will flag low battery and cut off early if you skip this step.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eTalk time shorter than expected after fitting the BBK87120\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA new Li-ion cell shipped from storage has not been fully cycled, so the first one or two charge cycles will deliver less than rated capacity. This is a chemistry condition, not a fault. The battery management circuit in the 8742 calibrates its fuel gauge against actual charge delivered — early cycles look short until the BMS has a full charge history. Run two to three complete charge and discharge cycles from the base cradle and capacity will stabilise near the rated 2400mAh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBase station charge light not activating after battery swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eIf the cradle LED stays dark or shows a fault light after you seat the handset, the battery voltage is likely below the base station's acceptance threshold — typically under 3.0V after extended storage. The base charges circuit expects a minimum cell voltage before it opens the charge path. Connect the handset to a USB power source or a compatible standalone charger briefly to push the cell above 3.2V, then return it to the cradle. Once above threshold, the base will recognise the pack and begin its normal charge cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43339892588634,"sku":"BWCS-SPL875CL-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43339892621402,"sku":"BWCS-SPL875CL-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43339892654170,"sku":"BWCS-SPL875CL-3","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SPL875CL-1.webp?v=1778366945","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/spectralink-8742-replacement-battery-37v-2400mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
