View productFor manpack radios, robotic platforms, and sensor payloads, the BB-2590 battery form factor stays familiar in the field, and this BB-2590/U battery pairs that compatibility with SMBus v1.1 reporting, 276 Wh of stored energy, and selectable 14.4 V or 28.8 V output.
Specification snapshot
Every figure below is taken from the manufacturer's own product listing. Use it as the reference sheet when you compare this pack against another BB-2590 build or against the radio it is meant to feed.

Dual voltage
The pack holds the same 276 Wh either way, so the choice is about what the platform expects rather than how long it runs. In 14.4 V mode the pack delivers 19.2 Ah; switched to 28.8 V the same energy arrives at 9.6 Ah. End-of-discharge is quoted at 12.0 V and 24.0 V respectively, which is the figure your equipment cut-off should tolerate.
SMBus v1.1 / SBData v1.1
The pack is not a blind cell block: it answers SMBus queries, so a charger or a platform charger manager can read what it needs instead of guessing from terminal voltage.
SMBus v1.1 compliant reporting of charge state, so the host sees remaining capacity rather than a voltage estimate.
SBData v1.1 data block for battery management: the figures a fleet manager needs to pull a pack before it fails in the field.
Two separate 5-segment LCDs show absolute state of charge without a radio attached — useful when packs are issued from a store.
Fleet fit
The listing states the packs this unit replaces directly, and names the charger families it works with. Check both lists against your existing stock before ordering.
| Compatibility | Listed on the product page |
|---|---|
| Direct replacement for | BB-2590/U · BB-590/U · BB-390B/U · BB-490/U · BA-5590/U · BA-5390/U · BA-3590/U |
| Charger families referenced | BT-70791JM · BT-70791A · BT-70791BK · BT-70791CK · BT-70791CG · BT-70791CE · ubbl02 units |
| Radio families named | SINCGARS & ATCS (AN/PRC-104, AN/PRC-119), FALCON (AN/PRC-138, AN/PRC-117) |
| Other platforms named | Robots, surveillance / sensors, jammer |
The listing quotes the pulse figure as “Pulse Capability (5 seconds) — up to 18A continuous”. Ask the supplier to confirm the surge rating your duty cycle actually needs, rather than reading the two numbers as one specification.
Applications
The same form factor covers manpack radios, ground robots and sensor payloads, which is why the pack is specified by interface and voltage mode rather than by one device.
SINCGARS and ATCS sets (AN/PRC-104, AN/PRC-119) and FALCON sets (AN/PRC-138, AN/PRC-117) take the BB-2590 footprint.
Ground robots and jammer platforms load the pack harder on peaks, which is where the quoted 18 A pulse and the 276 Wh budget matter.
Long-dwell sensor payloads care about energy per kilogram and about storage temperature when the kit is left in a vehicle.
Because the pack replaces BB-590/U, BB-390B/U and the BA-5590 family directly, a mixed inventory can be consolidated onto one part number.
Before you order
Two: 14.4 V mode with 19.2 Ah nominal capacity and 28.8 V mode with 9.6 Ah. Both hold 276 Wh, and the quoted end-of-discharge figures are 12.0 V and 24.0 V.
The listing names BB-2590/U, BB-590/U, BB-390B/U, BB-490/U, BA-5590/U, BA-5390/U and BA-3590/U as direct replacements for this unit.
The BT-70791JM, BT-70791A, BT-70791BK, BT-70791CK, BT-70791CG and BT-70791CE families, plus ubbl02 units. Confirm your own charger against that list before ordering.
The pack is SMBus v1.1 and SBData v1.1 compliant and communicates charge status and health metrics for battery management, so a host reads state of charge and pack health rather than inferring it from voltage.
A 6-pin polarized socket (SC-C-179495), a 127 × 112 × 61 mm hard plastic case weighing 1.4 kg, operating from −20 °C to +55 °C and storing between −30 °C and +40 °C.
