Varta EasyPack 1000 Barcode Scanner Compatible Battery 3.7V 1800mAh

Varta EasyPack 1000 / EZpack Series — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (1ICP5/35/62-2)

This 3.7V, 1800mAh Li-ion cell replaces the original pack in the Varta EasyPack 1000, EasyPack L, EZpack, and EZpack 1000 handheld barcode scanners. These are wireless handheld units used in retail, warehousing, and logistics. The replacement uses the same OEM part number 1ICP5/35/62-2 and matches the original cell dimensions exactly at 64.94 × 36.80 × 11.80mm.

• EasyPack and EZpack platform compatibility: The EasyPack 1000, EasyPack L, EZpack, and EZpack 1000 all share the same battery bay geometry, connector pinout, and 3.7V nominal rail. One cell covers the entire platform — the BMS handshake is identical across these models.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on the EZpack platform. The BMS accepted the pack without error flags, charge termination behaved correctly, and the protection circuit tripped at the expected low-voltage threshold without requiring a manual reset.
• First-shift preparation: After installing this pack, seat the scanner in its cradle and complete a full charge cycle before use. Scan trigger inrush current peaks sharply when the cell is near minimum — a fully charged cell prevents false BMS trips on the first pick-and-pack shift.

Cradle showing a charging error on a new pack

Charging docks on the EasyPack platform are sensitive to contact resistance at the battery terminals. A new pack with even minor oxidation or residue on its gold contacts can cause the cradle to flag a charge fault rather than begin a charge cycle. Wipe the battery contacts and the cradle contacts with a dry cloth, reseat the scanner firmly, and the dock should begin charging within a few seconds. If the error persists, check that the dock firmware hasn't locked out non-original packs — some older cradle firmware versions require a reset by removing the scanner for 10 seconds and reseating.

Scanner losing wireless connection during rapid scan bursts

During a fast scan sequence, the imager and the wireless radio draw current simultaneously — this combined inrush can pull cell voltage below the BMS trip threshold if the battery is already partially discharged. The scanner drops its wireless link and may need to reconnect to the base station, which shows up as missed scans or a frozen screen. The fix is to keep the battery above 30% during active shifts — most EZpack units show a charge indicator in the status bar. If the dropout happens consistently above 40%, the BMS trip threshold may be set conservatively; ensure the replacement cell is fully charged before shift start, as a fresh charge gives the cell headroom to handle peak dual-draw events without voltage sag triggering a cutoff.
