the battery for my yaesu ft5dr and charger works great. Next purchase will be the same battery system but for my kenwood d74
Did a test using APRS and GPS, and the battery was down to only 60% after 10 hours of use. My complaints is the the connectors are stiff, so you need to be careful connecting and disconnecting the battery pack. Installing the belt clip is difficult because opening the case requires patience. Do not pry too much or you’ll risk cracking the case. Get a nylon wedge to help open the case, and not a metal screwdriver. This radio is heavy with the battery, so if you plan on putting it on your belt, use a thick belt. If you love APRS and GPS, then this battery is a must.
I have both the FT 3D and the FT 70 batteries Great quality. I look forward to see what other batteries will come out.
I love my FT 70 but have always had to make sure I had a spare battery with me. The original battery won't last the day. Your battery is Awesome. I can easily get a couple of days out of it and it charges quickly. The usb charging is a plus as well. Highly recommended!
I like the function of this charger, Would like to see if it could charge multiple other portable radios that has a usb c charging capabilities. Other than that I like it. Along with the W0AEZ BP-Y14L V6 battery
Was having trouble charging; Kevin suggested the upgrade parts. Easy to install and works flawlessly.
Exactly what I needed and the shipping was incredibly fast!
This is the best battery for the the ft 2, 3, 5 can beat ot
Love the cradle, love the angle that the radio sits it it, makes it real easy to run my digital nets with a microphone connected tot the radio.
I really appreciate not only the long lasting charge on this battery (almost 48 hours of continuous monitoring, APRS beaconing, and occasional TX), but the USB-C charging makes this perfect for travel and even off-grid situations.
Great product, very well built. Works great, definitely a big improvement over the stock battery.
Needed the coupler adapter to help relocate an antenna. Well built. Easy to order.
Great addition to my Chameleon 8010 wire end-fed antenna.
Fits better the longer it's on the radio
