  • LOVE THE ADDED CHARGING OPTION!
Style: BL-5 Li-ion Battery Pack
I love the rechargeable feature, so I can use my phone charging cord! Now I don't have to carry the charging base with me! Fits right onto my Baofeng UV-5!

  • Great Service from Tech and the Products are well priced and good quality
Style: BL-5 Li-ion Battery Pack
I have ordered, received, programmed, and used four BaoFeng radios and accessories from BTech and thrilled by the performance of the radios and the service when I have a question directed to BTECH. I received one radio that sent and received perfectly but the 'red transmit' light was not functioning. BTech got me an RA number immediately to return for repair or replacement. I mailed it in to be received by them Monday. On that very Monday I received a notice that the repair or replaced radio was in the mail back to me. I call that exceptional service. They really stand by there product. ... show more

  • USB-C rechargeable!
Style: BL-5 Li-ion Battery Pack
This battery will fit most of the Baofeng models and can be recharged using a USB-C cable instead of the charger (but it WILL work with the charger too) so if you don't have room for a charger a USB-C cable will work great for it. Great idea!

  • Replaced original battery, love USB-C
Style: BL-5 Li-ion Battery Pack
Finally had to replace the original battery with my UV5R. It is primarily used for receiving of local repeaters but constantly being plugged in the original failed. This replacement lets me charge with a USB-C which I have on my portable operations lot making the radio more easily useful for dual HT FM satellite work. ... show more

  • Best upgrade to a UV-5R!
Style: BL-5 Li-ion Battery Pack
This is hands down the best upgrade I've made to a radio. Being able to charge the battery anywhere without having to haul the chunky charging base and wall-wart is just awesome! Battery life is just as good as the stock UV-5R battery but now so much easier to charge.
