BaoFengOriginal BaoFeng UV-5R Two-way Radio Battery

Super, Zweitakku für lange Betriebszeit unterwegs.

Purchased this battery as an additional battery for my UV-5R which it fits perfectly and seems to perform as well as the battery originally supplied with the radio, however should you wish to charge it on it’s own in the original USB desk charger it does not stay put! It appears to be ok when left attached to the radio, but as it is a spare I try to charge the battery while the other one is in service.To get around the problem I have cut a piece of surplus packing material to bridge the gap and it stays where it should. No big deal, as I say works perfectly well otherwise. Posted some photos should you need a solution.

Buen producto, llego a tiempo

Baofeng 7.4v 1800mAh Li-ion Battery for UV-5R After purchasing a Baofeng UV-5RA, I was quick to search for another. It was a great deal, and a good performer. It actually cost less than a new battery for my other HTs. While the radio itself isn't a Yaesu FT-530, with every bell & whistle imaginable, it is smaller, lighter, and has plenty of features for the average user. This battery contributes to keeping the radio shirt pocket size, while allowing it to run for about 3-4 times as long as my good ole Yaesu. While searching for another UV-5RA, I was curious about available accessories such as spare batteries, external speaker/mic, better antenna, battery eliminator, case etc. I found this battery quickly and was pleasantly surprised by the price. Just a few days after placing my order, the batteries arrived, packed well, and earlier than the projected delivery date! The supplied tracking number allowed me to follow the delivery from packaging to my front door. Wow! What great service!Upon inspection, the batteries weren't generic aftermarket accessories, but genuine OEM products with an embossed housing bearing the Baofeng name. The battery is also clearly labeled in English. The radio's owner's manual clearly stated the battery is shipped from the factory not fully charged, and requires charging before use. Again, I was pleasantly surprised to find each battery completely charged! Perhaps the vendor charged them before shipping?With a mix of standby, dual watch, scanning, listening to FM Broadcast radio, and a few QSO's (conversations) on local repeaters (a mix of high and low transmit power), the radio announced the battery was in need of a charge. The charge lasted about a day and half. My older HT's with much larger heavier batteries, only last a few hours per charge.This battery is extremely affordable, small, light weight, and powerful. Charging time from discharge to full charge is only a couple of hours. The battery charges while on the radio, or by itself in the charger.The battery itself is a great example of today's technology, and the pricing and service from Amazon is second to none. This recent experience is the best so far! I just hope they keep up their inventory on Baofeng products because I'm going to buy more.W6WAT Baofeng 7.4v 1800mAh Li-ion Battery for UV-5R
