It fits the PTC860, PTC860DS, PTC860-II, and PTC860ES handheld scanners used in retail, warehouse, and logistics operations. Voltage and connector match the original pack exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePTC860 family compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The PTC860, PTC860DS, PTC860-II, and PTC860ES share the same 4.8V battery bay, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol — one pack covers all four variants without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through full charge and discharge on a PTC860 unit, monitoring BMS response across scan-trigger inrush events. The protection circuit held voltage within spec and did not trip during burst scanning sequences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-shift prep on the cradle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing, seat the scanner in its cradle and run a complete charge cycle before pulling it for pick-and-pack work. Scan-trigger inrush current is highest when the cell is near minimum voltage — starting the shift with a full cell prevents false BMS trips during the first hour of use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCradle showing a charging error on a brand-new pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA new Ni-MH pack arrives in a partially discharged state. Some PTC860 cradles read the low initial voltage as a fault and refuse to begin the charge cycle. This is a contact or voltage-threshold issue at the dock, not a defective battery. Wipe the gold contacts on the pack and the cradle with a dry cloth, reseat the scanner firmly, and the cradle should begin charging within 30 seconds — confirmed at 4.2V or above on the pack terminals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eScanner losing wireless connection during rapid scan bursts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eOn the PTC860, the wireless radio and the scan trigger draw current at the same time during a rapid scan sequence. If the cell is aged or sitting below 4.5V, that combined inrush causes a momentary voltage sag the radio interprets as a power loss, dropping the connection mid-session. A fresh, fully charged cell raises the floor voltage enough to handle both loads simultaneously. If dropouts persist on a new pack, check that the battery contacts are clean and the pack is seated without play — loose contact adds resistance and amplifies the sag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43324978364506,"sku":"BWCS-TC860BL-1","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43324978397274,"sku":"BWCS-TC860BL-2","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43324978430042,"sku":"BWCS-TC860BL-3","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-TC860BL-1.webp?v=1778123452","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/telxon-ptc860-replacement-battery-48v-2500mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
