Batteries and Power Packs

This information applies to Zebra-approved batteries and power packs containing batteries.
Battery Information
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of batteries according to instructions.
Use only Zebra approved batteries.  Accessories which have battery charging capability are approved for use with the following battery models:

  • Model BT-000418 (3.6 VDC, 3300 mAh)
  • Model BT-000432 (3.6 VDC, 4900 mAh)

Zebra approved rechargeable battery packs are designed and constructed to the highest standards within the industry.
However, there are limitations as to how long a battery can operate or be stored before needing replacement. Many factors affect the actual life cycle of a battery pack such as heat, cold, harsh environmental conditions, and severe drops.
When batteries are stored over six months, some irreversible deterioration in overall battery quality may occur. Store batteries at half charge in a dry, cool place, removed from the equipment to prevent loss of capacity, rusting of metallic parts, and electrolyte leakage. When storing batteries for one year or longer, the charge level should be verified at least once a year and charged to half charge.
Replace the battery when a significant loss of run time is detected.

  • Standard warranty period for all Zebra batteries is one year, regardless if the battery was purchased separately or included as part of the host device. For more information on Zebra batteries, please visit: www.zebra.com/batterydocumentation and select the Battery Best Practices link.
