BTECH, BaoFeng BL-5 Battery Eliminator for for BF-F8HP, UV-5X3, and UV-5R Radios

These fit snugly in the battery bay of the Baofeng, and give the unit a little extra heft, and make it easier to hold, especially in a gloved hand. The unit operates almost twice as long as with the stock battery, perhaps longer in warm weather. Mine was tested in temps around 20 degrees. A worthwhile investment!

Great extra battery life.

This is a great backup that uses AA type alkaline batteries for powering your radio. As a ham that never knows what situation I might be facing for an emergency, this is very useful. I, and most people have a cache of AA batteries that I keep all of the time. This means if I drain my rechargeable batteries, this can be deployed with some fresh AA batteries to keep me on the air.

The product arrived very well packaged, charged the battery and it has been powering my UV-5R just fine. In fact I ran the radio for about 6 hours and no issues at all, plenty of charge left. Will be buying another in the near future.

Great replacement and a plus that you dont have to worry about conventual charger.

Only extended battery for the small baofeng radio, so it is worth buying if you want longer battery life. This looks, fits, and performs perfectly on my little radio. Lasts a good long time too, but i have not timed it. If you want more radio time, you need this battery

Christmas storm of 2022! Decided to really use it. Battery provided 35 hours are CONTINUOUS scanning and use. Was not turned off for just over 35 hours. Very satisfied.

Ham radio operators are always looking for top notched equipment and the BaoFeng is at the top of the list. Great hand held for beginners in getting their feet wet in the wonderful world of amateur radio.

Just getting into HAM radio & bought a BF-5R. Fit as it should d charged on the stand like the OEM

No issues for me.
