Product Description
The iPad Air 13-inch M2 (2024) is Apple’s first-ever 13-inch iPad Air — released May 2024 — and is widely deployed across enterprise fleets, education procurement, and creative professional channels. Units sold at launch are now entering their first battery replacement cycle, making this one of the fastest-growing SKUs in the tablet battery repair market.
The battery uses a 1S2P architecture: two pure LiCoO₂ (lithium cobalt oxide) soft-pack cells connected in parallel, delivering 3.85V nominal at 9720mAh / 36.59Wh — matching Apple’s published specification exactly. In 1S2P designs, cell matching is the critical production variable. Our factory pairs cells within ±20mAh of each other before assembly, preventing load imbalance — the leading cause of premature capacity loss in dual-cell batteries.

Features & Advantages
✅ 🔋 1S2P Pure Cobalt Cells — Matched-Pair Assembly
Two LiCoO₂ soft-pack cells are graded and paired within ±20mAh before parallel connection. This eliminates cell imbalance — the primary cause of premature capacity loss in dual-cell batteries. Delivered output: ≥ 9720mAh actual measured capacity.
✅ ⚡ USB-C Fast Charging Compatible
Validated for USB-C Power Delivery input up to 20W, matching Apple’s adapter specification for this device. iOS battery health reports normal behavior. No throttling, no compatibility flags with PD-compliant chargers.
✅ 🛡️ Dual-Cell PCM Protection Circuit
The PCM board manages both cells independently: overcharge cutoff (> 4.35V), over-discharge cutoff (< 2.75V), and short circuit protection. Essential for enterprise and school fleet deployments where battery failure carries downstream liability.
✅ 📋 CE, FCC & RoHS Certified
All batches ship with current CE (EU), FCC (US), and RoHS declarations. UN38.3 air transport reports and MSDS/SDS documents available on request. Required for legal import into North America, Europe, and most Asia-Pacific markets.
✅ 📦 B2B Ready — MOQ 50 pcs
MOQ is 50 pcs. Mixed orders across other tablet battery SKUs in our catalog count toward the same threshold — no per-SKU minimums. Custom labeling and retail-ready packaging available from 200 pcs. Free samples available before volume commitment; buyer covers freight.
✅ 🔧 100% Pre-Shipment QC
Every unit is individually capacity-discharged and logged before packing. DOA rate guaranteed below 0.3% per batch. Batch test reports available on request and can accompany each shipment.

FAQ
Q1: Which iPad Air 13-inch M2 models is this battery compatible with?
A: This battery fits the iPad Air 13-inch M2 (2024, 6th generation): A2898 (Wi-Fi), A2899 (Cellular Global), and A2900 (Cellular China). It is not compatible with iPad Air 11-inch M2 (A2902/A2903/A2904), iPad Pro, or any earlier iPad Air generation. Always verify the model number on the back housing before ordering.
Q2: Does this battery support USB-C fast charging?
A: Yes. The cell and PCM combination supports USB-C Power Delivery up to 20W — Apple’s own specification for this device. iOS battery health reports normal charging behavior with no compatibility flags.
Q3: What does 1S2P mean and why does it matter?
A: 1S2P means two cells connected in parallel. The iPad Air 13-inch M2 uses this configuration to reach 9720mAh within the physical housing. The key quality requirement is cell matching: both cells must be within ±20mAh before assembly. Mismatched cells cause uneven load distribution and early capacity loss. Our production line pairs cells before assembly — this is not universal in the aftermarket.
Q4: What certifications does this battery carry?
A: CE (EU), FCC (US), RoHS, and UN38.3 (air freight). MSDS/SDS documentation provided on request. These documents are routinely included with bulk orders.
Q5: What is the MOQ and can I mix SKUs?
A: MOQ is 50 pcs. Mixed orders across other tablet battery SKUs count toward the same threshold — no per-SKU minimums. Custom labeling available from 200 pcs. Free samples available; buyer covers freight.
Q6: What is the warranty and defect policy?
A: 12-month warranty from shipment. DOA rate guaranteed below 0.3% per batch. Defective units within warranty are replaced or credited at our cost. Batch test reports available on request.
