Replacement Battery for Symbol Scanners
The Centenex Electronics DS-CS-SC960BL is a nickel-metal hydride power pack built to replace the original 14881-000 cell in Symbol H960-C and PTC-960 series hand-held readers. It ships new and black, ready for warehouse or retail staff who need a direct swap without adapter cables or firmware updates.
7.2 V 1000 mAh Nickel-Metal Hydride Chemistry
The single figure that decides fit is the 7.2 V 1000 mAh Ni-MH rating; the scanner’s charging cradle and fuel-gauge firmware expect exactly this voltage and capacity window. A lithium or higher-capacity pack would report false remaining time and could stress the device’s charge controller.
Steady Output Through a Full Shift
Ni-MH chemistry delivers a flatter discharge curve than alkaline, so the scanner maintains consistent laser power and radio throughput from the first scan to the last pallet of an eight-hour shift. The pack tolerates daily top-up cycles in the cradle without the memory-effect penalty that plagued older nickel-cadmium cells.

Questions about this item
How long will the 7.2V 1000mAh capacity run a Symbol scanner between charges?
The 7.2 watt-hour pack delivers roughly one full shift on a typical H960-C or PTC-960 series unit; actual runtime varies with scan frequency and backlight use.
Does the Ni-MH chemistry require any special charging routine on the PTC-960DS cradle?
No, the battery is designed as a direct drop-in for the original 14881-000 pack and charges normally in the scanner's standard cradle or dock.
Will the 55.92 x 51.20 x 17.50 mm case fit the battery compartment of a TX94C2-D without modification?
Yes, those dimensions match the OEM battery cavity exactly, so the pack seats flush and the latch engages without forcing.
