These handheld barcode scanners are used across retail, warehousing, and inventory environments where scan uptime directly affects shift output. Voltage and capacity match the OEM specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePTC-960SL and PTC-960SL III coverage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models share the same 7.2V battery bay, connector pinout, and charge management circuit. A single replacement pack covers either unit without modification or adapter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through charge and discharge cycles on the PTC-960SL platform. The BMS accepted the cell stack without fault codes, and the charge circuit reached full termination voltage without interruption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-shift preparation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Place the scanner in its cradle for a full charge cycle before putting it into active picking. The scan trigger draws a short inrush current each time it fires — starting the shift on a fully charged cell prevents false BMS trips that can misread as a faulty pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCradle charging error on a new pack in the PTC-960SL dock\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe PTC-960SL cradle reads pack voltage through spring contacts on the base of the terminal. If those contacts carry oxidation or debris from a worn-out original battery, the dock can flag a charge fault on a new cell that is otherwise fine. Wipe the gold contacts on both the pack and the cradle with a dry lint-free cloth before reseating. If the error clears after a firm reseat, the fault was contact resistance, not the battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eScanner dropping wireless connection during rapid scan bursts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe PTC-960SL fires both the barcode laser and the RF transmitter within the same short window during a rapid scan sequence. That combined inrush pulls more current than either subsystem alone. A cell with degraded capacity can't sustain the voltage rail through that spike, and the radio drops its connection to the access point. If the scanner reconnects on its own after a pause, the battery is the most likely cause — check resting voltage with a multimeter; a healthy Ni-Cd cell at rest should read at or above 7.2V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43324928720986,"sku":"BWCS-PTC960SL-1","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43324928753754,"sku":"BWCS-PTC960SL-2","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43324928786522,"sku":"BWCS-PTC960SL-3","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PTC960SL-1.webp?v=1778123452","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/telxon-ptc-960sl-replacement-battery-72v-600mah-ni-cd","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
