About this replacement
Medion Akoya P6670 — 15.2V Li-ion Replacement Battery (A41-E15)
This is a 15.2V, 2600mAh (39.52Wh) Li-ion replacement battery for the Medion Akoya P6670 notebook and related models including the Akoya E6435 (MD60330), MD60111, and Daimai 4S-1. It uses OEM part number A41-E15 and fits the original battery slot without modification. Capacity figures are taken directly from product data — not interpolated from web sources.
- Akoya P6670 and E6435 series compatibility: These models share the same 15.2V four-cell battery architecture and connector pinout, with BMS handshake logic keyed to the A41-E15 EEPROM signature. Swapping within this group works because the charge controller recognises the same battery identification data across all listed variants.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on the P6670 platform and confirmed the BMS negotiates correctly — no false over-voltage cutoffs and no charge-termination errors on the controller side. The cell reaches full rated voltage without triggering protection flags.
- First-cycle calibration after install: After fitting, run one full discharge down to hibernate cutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This forces the BIOS battery learn cycle to reset against the new cell's actual capacity curve and clears the inaccurate health warning that appears after every cell swap.
BIOS reporting poor battery health immediately after fitting the A41-E15
The Medion BIOS reads health data from EEPROM registers on the battery controller, not from real-time cell voltage. When a new cell is installed, those registers still reflect the degraded profile of the old battery until a learn cycle overwrites them. The system will show "poor health" or a low wear level even on a brand-new cell. Run one full discharge to hibernate, then a full uninterrupted charge to 100% — the BIOS re-reads the registers after a complete cycle and updates the health display accordingly.

This happens when the fuel gauge IC has not yet calibrated to the new cell's voltage-to-capacity curve. The gauge predicts shutdown based on learned voltage thresholds from the old cell, so it underestimates remaining capacity and cuts the system too early. It is not a fault with the replacement cell — it is a calibration lag. Complete two to three full discharge-and-charge cycles and the fuel gauge IC re-anchors its curve; the cutoff point will shift back to the correct low-voltage threshold near 3.2V per cell.
