X6100 Internal Battery Issue
|
I would say the battery is weak and cannot power the rig.? I am sure the ext power and internal battery supply the same circuitry. If you power up the rig with ext power, turn on the rig and then unplug the X6100 will it remain powered up???

Looking for a fix for the x6100.? The radio operates just fine on external power.? However, the radio will not turn on with the internal battery though it is full.? I rarely use the radio so not sure what the issue is.
?
Any suggestions or recommendations welcome.

I ask how do you know the internal battery is charged.? With ext source the display shows that source's voltage, not internal battery.? Only way to see internal battery is charged is with rig on and using internal battery. I assume you think the internal battery is full by you charging it for a few hours, but this does not really tell it is charged.? If it will not take a charge with it being bad, then cannot tell by the rig display. I would say you do have a bad internal battery.? How old is the rig???

AliExpress does sell the batteries, there are 2, for the X6100.? But must take the rig apart to replace. Here is another source:

I ordered (2) new lithium batteries for my X6100 from Amazon.? My radio exhibited the same problem you're describing.? The charge indicator in the radio shows the voltage of the internal batteries, and not the capacity.? I could turn on my radio, and it would
boot up off the internal batteries, but when I keyed the radio to transmit it would immediately shut off.? When I took the radio apart one of the batteries was very swollen.? It was quite evident that one of the batteries had failed.? It took awhile to get
the battery through Amazon, but it did arrive, and now my radio works as it should.? ?The part number for the batteries is: #605080.? They are lithium polymer batteries rated at 3.7V, and 3000mAh.? I think someone on here posted that you can get replacements
AliExpress?? When I recieved my batteries I simply clipped off the plastic plugs the batteries came with, and soldered the wires directly to the internal board inside the radio.? It's a pretty easy process if you know how to solder.??
I don't remember the exact price of the batteries.? I think the pair cost less than $20.00???
Good luck with the project,
Leonard/WV3P?
