Product Description
The iPad Air 2 and iPad 6th Gen share the same battery platform. Both use the A1547 Li-polymer cell in a 1S2P configuration. After 3-5 years of daily use, original batteries typically degrade to below 80% capacity — at which point the device throttles performance and screen-on time drops from 10 hours to under 4. This is the single highest-demand replacement part in the iPad repair ecosystem.
Our A1547 replacement battery is built on a custom pure-cobalt cell, selected specifically for its flat discharge curve and stable voltage output throughout the charge cycle. Unlike mixed-chemistry cells used by lower-tier suppliers, cobalt-cathode cells maintain tighter voltage tolerance at 3.8V nominal — which matters for the iPad 6’s power management IC.

Features & Advantages
✅ Custom Pure-Cobalt Cell — Not a Commodity Grade
We source custom pure-cobalt cathode cells specifically wound for the A1547 form factor. Nominal capacity: 7340mAh / 27.62Wh. Actual measured capacity at room temperature (25°C): ≥ 95% of rated. No mixed NMC filler chemistry. Every cell undergoes formation cycling before pack assembly.
✅ TI BMS Protection Circuit (Texas Instruments)
The battery management IC is sourced from Texas Instruments (TI), matching the architecture expected by the iPad’s system PMU. This ensures the device reads accurate battery percentage, prevents false low-battery shutdowns, and supports proper charge termination. Non-TI BMS units frequently cause the “Service Battery” warning to appear within 60 days of installation — ours do not.
✅ 1S2P Pack Structure — Higher Sustained Output
The 1S2P configuration (1 cell in series, 2 in parallel) doubles the current delivery capacity vs a single-cell pack. This supports the iPad’s display and wireless radios under load without voltage sag. Pack dimensions match OEM fitment precisely: no modification to adhesive channels or flex connector length required.
✅ 0-Cycle, Grade A Cell — Ships Uncycled
Every unit ships with 0 charge cycles. Capacity is confirmed at ≥ 95% before packaging. We do not sell refurbished, pulled, or re-wrapped cells. Each batch carries a production date code traceable to our cell supplier’s QC records — available on request for bulk orders.
✅ Wholesale-Ready Packaging & Low MOQ
Sample orders start from 5 units. Standard bulk orders: 50–500 units with tiered pricing. Each unit ships in individual anti-static blister packaging. Outer carton is MSDS-compliant for air freight. Custom labeling (OEM branding, SKU stickers) available from 200 units with 3-5 day lead time for artwork review.
✅ Full Certification Stack for Air Freight Compliance
UN38.3 (mandatory for air transport of lithium batteries), CE (EU market), RoHS, and MSDS documentation ship with every order. This eliminates customs clearance delays for buyers in the EU, UK, Australia, and North America. Certificates are available as digital copies before you place your first order.

FAQ
Q1: Is this A1547 battery compatible with both the iPad Air 2 and the iPad 6th generation?
A: Yes. The A1547 is the OEM battery model used in all four variants: iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi (A1566), iPad Air 2 Cellular (A1567), iPad 6 Wi-Fi (A1893), and iPad 6 Cellular (A1954). The physical dimensions, flex connector pinout, and voltage profile are identical across all four. No adapter or modification is required.
Q2: How long does the iPad Air 2 replacement battery last after installation?
A: Under normal mixed-use conditions — roughly 5–7 hours of active screen time per day — our A1547 battery will hold above 80% of its original capacity for a minimum of 600 full charge cycles. That equates to approximately 18–24 months of daily use before noticeable degradation. Actual lifespan depends on ambient temperature and charging habits. Avoid keeping the device plugged in at 100% for extended periods.
Q3: Does this battery require calibration or activation after installation?
A: No activation procedure is required. However, we recommend running one full charge-discharge cycle within the first 48 hours to allow the BMS to calibrate the fuel gauge with the device’s PMU. Simply charge to 100%, use until the device shuts off at 0%, then charge back to 100% uninterrupted. After this initial cycle, the battery percentage readout will be accurate.
Q4: Will this battery trigger a “Service Battery” or “Unknown Part” warning on the iPad?
A: No, not with our unit. The TI-based BMS chip communicates correctly with the iPad’s power management controller. The “Service Battery” warning in older iPads typically appears when a non-compliant BMS reports incorrect data. We have validated this battery on iPads running iPadOS 15 and 16 with no system alerts.
Q5: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for wholesale buyers?
A: Sample orders start at 5 units. Standard wholesale pricing tiers begin at 50 units. Volume pricing is available at 100, 200, and 500+ unit breaks. Custom OEM packaging (your brand label, retail blister, or plain white box) is available from 200 units. Lead time for labeled orders is 15–20 business days.
Q6: What certifications does this battery carry, and can it ship by air?
A: This battery carries UN38.3, CE, RoHS, and MSDS documentation — all required for legal air transport of lithium-polymer cells. We regularly ship to the EU, UK, US, Australia, and Southeast Asia via DHL, FedEx, and UPS without customs holds. Digital copies of all certificates are provided with your first order. Hard copies can be included in-carton upon request.
