It fits the same physical bay and connects to the same BMS interface as the factory unit. Capacity is rated at 17.02Wh, matching the original power envelope these terminals were configured around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eX970 and X990 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both terminals run the same 7.4V two-cell architecture and share the SX18650-2S1P pack form factor, including the identical connector pinout and BMS communication line. One replacement covers both models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through full boot sequences and simulated transaction loads, including receipt printer motor draws. The BMS held within spec under combined wireless, display, and printer current without tripping overcurrent protection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst deployment tip for X970 \/ X990:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installation, complete one full transaction cycle before putting the terminal into live service. The terminal maps battery capacity during normal operation and needs at least one complete power cycle to read the charge indicator correctly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eVeriFone X990 rebooting mid-transaction after a new battery install\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe receipt printer motor pulls a short, sharp current spike every time it fires. On a new cell that hasn't completed its first full charge cycle, the BMS can read that spike as an overcurrent event and cut power to protect the pack. This causes the terminal to reboot mid-sale — the payment clears on the network side but the terminal loses the session. Run the terminal through at least one complete charge before processing live transactions. If the problem persists after a full cycle, check that the battery contacts are fully seated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eX970 not completing PCI boot sequence after battery replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe X970 runs a PCI-compliant boot check that includes a battery handshake before the OS fully loads. A freshly installed pack that hasn't been through a charge cycle may not pass that handshake, leaving the terminal stuck at a partial boot screen. This isn't a fault with the battery — it's the BMS not yet recognised as validated by the terminal's firmware. Charge the battery to full using the terminal's own dock or power adapter, then power cycle. The boot sequence should complete normally from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43415932600410,"sku":"BWCS-VFX990BL-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43415932633178,"sku":"BWCS-VFX990BL-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43415932665946,"sku":"BWCS-VFX990BL-3","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-VFX990BL-1.webp?v=1779758145","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/verifone-x970-replacement-battery-74v-2300mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
