Cons

The battery is not the issue. The issue is the charger. Fairly disappointed. This is the bl-5l and will not fit if you need abl-5.

Quality


Well made and extends battery cycle on my transceivers.

I did have a major nitpick in that this battery did not fit my uv-5r (8w)!

Price


Great value combined with chirp software (freeware downloads) makes for a very versatile radio.


This is what free market capitalism is all about!

    Wanted all my baofeng radios to be chargeable in the car or other places without having to drag the 110v charger stand around and trying to find an inverter to use it in the car

    I bought the twopack of bl5 3800mah extended batteries for my btech uv5x3

    The batteries slid onto the radio and locked into place properly however the feet standoffs on the bottom of the battery were too long compared to the oem feet on the radio side

    This caused the radio to tip over when placed on a flat surface
