Motorola DOUBLES Battery Warranty

With the recent announcement that Motorola has doubled its manufacturers warranty for defects in manufacturing and defects from 24 months to 48 months on both the IMPRES and Non-IMPRES battery line has really shaken up the two-way battery industry. Below is a summary of these changes:


Motorola Battery Warranty
** EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2012 **
For Batteries purchased after July 1st 2012


IMPRES Battery Warranty:


  • 48 months against any defects in manufacturing or workmanship (this is an increase from 24 months).
  • 24 months for Nickel-Cadmium batteries, warranted to maintain 80% rated capacity.
  • 18 months Nickel-Metal Hydride and Lithium-ion batteries, warranted to maintain 80% rated capacity (70% rated capacity for PMNN4093).
  • IMPRES batteries NOT charged exclusively in IMPRES chargers get reduced by 6 months of capacity warranty (i.e. 18 months instead of 24 for NiCD, and 12 months instead of 18 for NiMH & Li-ION).


Non-IMPRES Battery Warranty:


  • 48 months against any defects in manufacturing or workmanship (this is an increase from 24 months).
  • 18 months Nickel-Cadmium batteries, warranted to maintain 80% rated capacity.

Motorola introduces entry level MotoTRBO portable, XPR6100

Motorola is rolling out the much anticipated "entry level" digital radio to it's popular MotoTRBO line-up. The new XPR 6100 portable radio features 32 channels programmable to either analog or digital TRBO making this radio the perfect entry into any future digital mandates.

Model Breakdown:


  • XPR 6100 AAH55JDT9JA1AN XPR 6100 - 136-174 MHz 5W 32 CH NKP
  • XPR 6100 AAH55QDT9JA1AN XPR 6100 - 403-470 MHz 4W 32 CH NKP
  • XPR 6100 AAH55TDT9JA1AN XPR 6100 - 450-512 MHz 4W 32 CH NKP
This new XPR 6100 utilizes all the current MotoTRBO batteries and accessories. It is however missing any GPS, submersibility, data, telemetry, trunking or networked repeater functionality. With an estimated street price around $500 look for the XPR 6100 to available in Spring 2012.

Motorola releases next-generation GPS enabled microphones for the XTS 2500 / XTS 5000 Series

Motorola has just released the updated version to the popular GPS-enabled Commander II series remote speaker microphones.

The new microphones offer more accurate GPS polling, the ability to control the polling frequency (with polling rates as frequency as 3 seconds) and now power is supplied by the radio instead of an external battery.

The new microphones are now shipping and available in our store, they are HMN4106A for the Submersible version and HMN4107A for the mic with the 3.5mm earpiece located on the head.

These new microphones will be replacing the HMN4080A and HMN4084A microphones.

Motorola Battery Care & Tips

We get lots of questions asked about battery care of two-way radio batteries, Motorola put together a nice handout we will be including in future battery shipments from Wiscomm. We have also included a copy of that content below.


These battery tips will help you obtain optimized performance and a longer life cycle from your Motorola rechargeable battery.

1. Charge your new battery overnight before using it. This is referred to as INITIALIZING and will enable you to obtain maximum battery capacity.
a. Nickel Cadmium or Nickel Metal Hydride: 14-16 hours.
b. Lithium Ion/Polymer: 1 to 2 additional hours after the charger light turns green.

2. New Motorola impres batteries, when inserted into a Motorola impres charger, will indicate a calibration cycle by displaying a steady Yellow indication on the charge status indicator.  Allow this calibration process to complete by not removing the battery from the charger until it has completely charged and displays a steady green indication.

3. In order to minimize capacity loss and cycle life reduction, new, NON INITIALIZED batteries must be stored in well ventilated, cool and dry locations. Batteries stored in these conditions may be stored:
a. Nickel Cadmium up to 2 years.
b. Nickel Metal Hydride up to 18 months.
c. Lithium Ion/Polymer up to 18 months.

4. If used batteries are to be removed from service for extended periods (greater than 30 days) they should be discharged to about 50% of their capacity before storage in a cool, dry location.

5. Batteries which have been in storage for more than two months should be fully discharged and recharged.
a. Nickel Cadmium or Nickel Metal Hydride: 14-16 hours.
b. Lithium Ion/Polymer: 1 to 2 additional hours after the charger light turns green.

6. When using a Motorola rapid charger, leave the battery in the charger for an additional 1 to 2 hours after the steady green light appears. (Applies to non-impres batteries only.)

7. Do not leave your radio and fully-charged battery in the charger when not charging. Continuous charging will shorten battery life. (Do not use charger as a radio stand.)

8. Only charge a battery when it needs it. If it is not fully discharged, do not recharge it. We suggest that you carry a spare. This is the most cost effective solution for users requiring longer operating time.

9. Do not return fully charged non-impres batteries to the charger for an "extra boost." This action will significantly reduce cycle life. Repeated short cycle charging of non-impres batteries will shorten battery life. (Do not use charger as a radio stand for non-impres batteries.)

10. Stabilize batteries to room temperature (72ºF) before charging. Charging below 40ºF and above 104ºF will decrease cycle life.

These simple care instructions help protect your rechargeable batteries from extreme charging temperatures and enhance their performance and useful life.

If you have any questions on how to care or manage your battery inventory, please contact us today. We have implemented innovative programs for numerous public safety agencies.

Motorola Introduces IMPRES™ Fleet Management for Two-way Radio Batteries and Chargers

Las Vegas, Nev. – March 10, 2010 – The Enterprise Mobility Solutions business of Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) introduces IMPRES Fleet Management for Motorola’s exclusive IMPRES two-way radio batteries and chargers.  As soon as a battery is inserted into an IMPRES charger, information is collected and shared with administrators to easily determine proper actions, such as proactively removing poorly performing batteries from the fleet or ensuring each user has the appropriate capacity battery based on their needs. Accumulated data is managed through pre-defined or customizable reports that provide key information to ensure users operate their batteries and chargers to maximum efficiency.

“Managing the performance of the two-way radio batteries is an important part of ensuring optimal performance of the entire radio system,” said Nick Candotti, director of Global Accessory and Energy Business, Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions.  “When users begin their shifts, it is critical they understand the exact capacity of their radio battery and know to replace poor performing batteries in advance to increase worker productivity and safety.”

IMPRES Fleet Management allows system administrators to quickly run reports that allow them to proactively manage their fleet of IMPRES batteries and chargers.  They are no longer guessing when batteries need to be replaced within their fleet or keeping a significant stock of spare batteries on hand.

“System administrators can save significant time and money by having a system that provides all their key IMPRES battery and charger information in one place,” added Candotti. “In addition to time saved, operational costs are reduced with fewer spare batteries on hand because of increased information about the existing battery fleet.”

"With IMPRES Fleet Management, we were able to quickly run reports and analyze data on IMPRES batteries and chargers we previously managed manually." said Lieutenant Wayne Rothbauer from the Hoffman Estates Fire Department in Illinois. “Having this information at our fingertips allows us to automate our battery management, saves significant time and ensures our firefighters have batteries that operate at maximum efficiency."

IMPRES Fleet Management is most beneficial for mid-to-large sized organizations that have at least 100 IMPRES batteries in their fleet such as public safety agencies, public works, utilities and manufacturing companies. IMPRES Fleet Management is scalable from a single site to a multi-site networked system and supports up to 25,000 IMPRES batteries in the same location or over geographically dispersed areas.
