Datalogic MC-P096-M4 4-Slot Multi-Battery Charger
Overview
The Datalogic MC-P096-M4 is a genuine OEM master charger designed to support enterprise fleet operations where device uptime is non-negotiable. This 4-slot configuration enables simultaneous charging of multiple batteries, maintaining rotating battery availability in warehouse, retail, and field service environments running multi-shift operations. Unlike third-party chargers, the MC-P096-M4 is engineered to the same standards as the original Datalogic hardware it powers, ensuring charge cycle optimization and battery lifespan consistency.
Key Features
- 4-slot charging capacity: Charge four batteries in parallel rather than sequentially — cuts battery turnaround time roughly in half compared to single-slot designs, a meaningful gain when you're rotating devices across multiple shifts.
- Master charger configuration: Designed for centralized battery fleet management in distribution centers and mobile workforces where dozens of hand-held terminals or mobile computers rotate through the same charging infrastructure.
- Genuine Datalogic OEM manufacturing: Built to match the electrical and thermal characteristics of original Datalogic batteries — no risk of incompatibility or degraded charge cycles that can occur with generic alternatives.
- Optimized charge cycle performance: Delivers consistent capacity output across extended shift cycles by matching the charging profile to Datalogic battery chemistry and specifications.
- Supports hot-swap capable devices: Works seamlessly with Datalogic terminals that allow battery removal and replacement without powering down — staff can swap batteries mid-shift without interrupting workflow or losing session data.
- Manufacturer-backed warranty and quality assurance: Genuine OEM accessories carry the same reliability assurance as the devices themselves, protecting your fleet investment over multiple operational years.
Integration & Compatibility
The MC-P096-M4 integrates into existing Datalogic device fleets without configuration. Simply plug in Datalogic batteries rated for this charger family — no firmware updates, no BIOS adjustments required. The charger is designed specifically for Datalogic mobile computers and hand-held terminals that support OEM charging. If you operate a mixed-vendor fleet or use third-party chargers elsewhere, confirm battery compatibility with your Datalogic device documentation before deployment. Organizations running Datalogic warehousing or field service equipment will find this charger a plug-and-play addition to their existing infrastructure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What Datalogic devices are compatible with the MC-P096-M4?
A: The charger supports Datalogic mobile computers and hand-held terminals equipped with batteries compatible with OEM Datalogic charging standards. Refer to your device documentation or contact the manufacturer to confirm your specific model is supported.
Q: Can I charge non-Datalogic batteries in the MC-P096-M4?
A: No. The MC-P096-M4 is engineered exclusively for genuine Datalogic batteries. Using third-party batteries risks damage to the charger and degraded battery performance.
Q: How long does a full charge cycle take?
A: Charge time depends on battery capacity and current state. Consult the product datasheet or your device manual for specific charge duration and thermal specifications.
Q: Is the MC-P096-M4 suitable for unattended charging (e.g., overnight)?
A: Yes. The charger is designed for continuous fleet operations and supports multi-shift charging schedules, including overnight battery rotation. Ensure proper ventilation and follow temperature guidelines in your operating environment.
Q: What warranty period covers the MC-P096-M4?
A: Genuine Datalogic accessories carry manufacturer warranty. Consult the product documentation or your reseller for specific warranty terms and coverage details.
The Datalogic MC-P096-M4 solves a real operational problem in warehouse and field service deployments: battery bottlenecks during peak shift hours. With a 4-slot configuration, you eliminate the single-charger queue that kills productivity when twelve field techs or warehouse workers need to swap batteries simultaneously. The MC-P096-M4 is genuine OEM, which matters — third-party chargers introduce variability in charge cycles that degrades battery lifespan faster than you'd expect over a two-year device lifecycle.
Technical Highlights:
- 4-slot parallel charging: Four batteries charge simultaneously instead of sequentially — reduces battery turnaround time by roughly 50% compared to single-slot chargers, a significant factor in multi-shift warehouse or field service operations.
- OEM manufacturing standards: Engineered to match original Datalogic battery chemistry and electrical specifications, ensuring consistent charge profiles that preserve battery capacity across hundreds of recharge cycles.
- Master charger design: Purpose-built for fleet management environments where you need centralized charging infrastructure rather than scattered single-device chargers — simplifies spare battery inventory and rotation schedules.
Deployment Considerations:
- Battery compatibility is strict — this charger accepts only Datalogic batteries rated for OEM charging. Verify your device's compatible battery model before procurement.
- Four-slot capacity is appropriate for fleets of 12–20 devices in continuous rotation; larger deployments may require multiple chargers or a staggered shift-based charging schedule.
The MC-P096-M4 is the right choice for warehouse automation operations, retail replenishment teams, or field service fleets where you control device and battery inventory and need predictable, fleet-scale charging infrastructure. It's not a universal charger — it's built specifically for Datalogic ecosystems — but within that ecosystem, it eliminates a real throughput constraint.
