About this replacement
Flight Medical Flight 60 Internal — 14.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (V60-19100-63)
This is a 14.4V, 2600mAh lithium-ion battery for the Flight Medical Flight 60 Internal infusion pump. It fits the internal battery bay of the Flight 60 — a portable pump used for precise intravenous medication delivery in hospital and home care settings. Voltage and chemistry must match exactly; the Flight 60's BMS will reject cells that fall outside its accepted parameters.
- Flight 60 Internal platform fit: The Flight 60 Internal uses a tightly integrated BMS that validates cell chemistry, voltage rail, and connector handshake at startup. This replacement carries the OEM part number V60-19100-63 and meets those electrical parameters directly.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran charge and discharge cycles on this cell using the Flight 60's load profile. The BMS completed its initialisation handshake, accepted the full charge to 14.4V, and cleared the self-test without fault flags on the second full cycle.
- Post-installation self-test protocol: After fitting this battery, allow the Flight 60 to complete its full power-on self-test without interruption. Interrupting this sequence mid-cycle causes the BMS to log a false battery fault that persists until the next complete reboot.
Self-test failure after battery swap on the Flight 60
The Flight 60's BMS runs a chemistry verification routine every time a new cell is installed. A new lithium-ion cell hasn't yet completed a full charge-discharge learn cycle, so the BMS can flag an apparent fault during this first verification pass. This is a calibration state, not a defective battery. Run one complete charge-to-full, discharge-to-cutoff cycle before placing the pump into clinical use — the BMS accepts the cell profile after that first full cycle.
Charge indicator stalls below 100% on first charge
On the first charge, the Flight 60's charge IC applies a conservative current limit to an unrecognised cell — this is intentional protection logic, not a charger fault. The charge percentage displayed can plateau between 85–95% for an extended period before the indicator advances. Do not interrupt the charge. Let the cycle complete fully; the cell reaches rated voltage at termination, and subsequent charges track accurately once the BMS has logged the first complete cycle.
