The Merida eONE-SIXTY 700 (EP8) runs the Shimano STEPS EP8 / EP801 / EP600, a Shimano drive whose battery is proprietary to the system, so the replacement pack is one of its own, most often the Shimano STEPS BT-EN805 (504 Wh, 36 V, in-tube), charged through the Higo / Julet charge and signal connector.
Read the drive-unit number: an EP801 or EP600 build takes the BT-EN806/EN806-family pack, while a look-alike 630 Wh BT-E8036 is for the EP800/E8000 generation and has zero compatibility with EP801.
