Product Description
The Right Battery and Charger for Higher-Powered Power Wheels Vehicles
This bundle pairs the official Mattel Power Wheels 12V orange-top battery (part #00801-1776) with its correct OEM charger (part #00801-1778) for a complete, guaranteed-compatible replacement in one purchase. Whether you're replacing a worn-out battery and a lost charger at the same time, or picking up a second set so your child never has to wait while the primary battery recharges — this bundle has everything covered.
Both items are genuine Mattel OEM parts sold through Battery Mart, an authorized Power Wheels service center. Every product in this category comes directly from the original manufacturer.
What's Included
The bundle includes one Power Wheels 12V orange-top rechargeable battery (00801-1776) — a 12-volt, 12Ah sealed lead-acid battery with a 40-amp internal breaker designed for higher-powered Advanced Series vehicles — and one Power Wheels 12V OEM charger (00801-1778), the correct charger for both the orange-top and all-gray 12V batteries.
Compatible vehicles include Jeep Hurricane models (FDG13, GWH24, HGB67, HJL31, X6645, and others), Barbie Dream Camper, Barbie Smart Car, Ford F150 Extreme Sport, and Smart Car. This battery replaces OEM part numbers 00801-1661, 00801-1776, and 00801-1857. If you're unsure whether this is the right battery for your vehicle, the most reliable check is the plug color on your vehicle's wiring harness — an orange plug means this bundle is correct for your vehicle. A black plug means you need the gray battery bundle instead.
Why the Orange-Top Battery Is Not Interchangeable with the Gray Battery
Both batteries are 12 volts, which is why they're commonly confused — but they are not interchangeable. The orange-top battery uses a 40-amp internal breaker; the all-gray battery uses a 30-amp breaker. Vehicles designed for the orange-top battery draw more current and need the higher-rated breaker to operate safely. Using the wrong battery can cause the breaker to trip repeatedly, reduced performance, or potential damage to the vehicle over time. Always replace like for like.
Charging Instructions
Before first use, charge the battery for a full 18 hours to ensure maximum capacity from day one. For routine recharges, charge for at least 14 hours after each use. Never exceed 30 hours of continuous charging. Recharge after every use and charge at least once a month during storage periods to prevent deep discharge and maintain battery health.
Keep your Power Wheels battery healthy
We ship out all Power Wheels batteries brand new, fresh from the factory. However, we recommend that you have the Power Wheels charger to keep it healthy.
It's a good idea to recharge the battery every three months when the toy is not in use. This is important during the Winter when the toy might sit for extended periods of time. Keeping the battery maintained will make sure that when the toy is being used again, it'll run for a long time.
After use, you should charge the batteries immediately. You should never run down batteries and let them sit in a discharged condition for long. If they sit for too long, there's a good possibility they'll never power the toy for as long as it should. So, keep the batteries charged and maintained!
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my Power Wheels vehicle needs the orange-top bundle?
The most reliable indicator is the plug on your vehicle's wiring harness — if it's orange, this bundle is correct. You can also check the part number on your current battery: if it shows 00801-1661, 00801-1776, or 00801-1857, this is your replacement. If your plug is black or your battery is all-gray, you need the gray battery bundle instead.
Is the charger in this bundle the same as the one in the gray battery bundle?
Yes — the 00801-1778 charger is the correct OEM charger for both the orange-top and all-gray 12V Power Wheels batteries. If you already have this charger and only need the battery, you can purchase the orange-top battery separately.
Can I use a car battery or lithium battery in my Power Wheels instead?
We strongly recommend against it. Power Wheels vehicles are engineered specifically for their OEM sealed lead-acid batteries. Car batteries are not designed for the deep-cycle discharge pattern that ride-on toys use, and lithium replacements may exceed the voltage tolerance of the vehicle's motor and electronics if not precisely matched. Neither is covered by Mattel's warranty. For safe, reliable performance, the OEM battery in this bundle is the right choice.
How long does it take to charge the Power Wheels 12V battery?
A full charge takes between 14 and 18 hours. For a brand-new battery, always charge for the full 18 hours before first use to ensure maximum capacity from the start. Never charge for more than 30 hours at a stretch, and unplug the charger from both the battery and wall outlet when charging is complete.
Can I buy this bundle to have a spare battery and charger?
Absolutely — having a spare fully charged battery on hand means your child can swap batteries and keep riding while the first one recharges. Just be sure to keep the spare charged at least once a month even during periods of non-use to prevent capacity loss.

Customer Reviews
I got exactly what I needed for my son’s Power Wheels Jeep. Fair price and shipped fast. Very pleased. I will be sure to come back here for all my battery needs.
I ordered two new batteries for my son's jeep because our old one wouldn't keep a charge. The batteries were exactly what I needed, the price was the best online and the batteries were shipped quickly. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and my son can drive his jeep for hours.
