Can you charge NiMH batteries while they are on the radio like you would the original battery pack?
Will this work with baofeng uv-5rtp?
How does this operate? With a BF-F8HP will it transmit with 6 AA batteries? What is the dummy battery used for??
Please confirm this does work on the 8 Watt BF-F8HP at full power. I purchase the 7.99 third party one and it did not work using 8 watts.

Must-Have Upgrade for Any Baofeng User – Massive Battery Life!

If you use a Baofeng radio regularly (especially models like the UV-5R or BF-F8HP), the BTECH BL-5L 3800mAh battery is a game-changer. This battery more than doubles the runtime compared to the standard 1800mAh pack, and it’s one of the best upgrades I’ve made to my radio setup.✅ Long-Lasting Power: I easily get 2–3 days of moderate use (monitoring, scanning, occasional transmitting) without needing to recharge. It's perfect for camping, road trips, or emergency kits where recharging options are limited.✅ New verions have USB Charging Port: One of the coolest features—built-in USB charging! No more needing to bring a charging base. I can top it off with a phone charger, power bank, or car USB port. Huge convenience when I’m on the go.✅ Perfect Fit: Snaps right onto my UV-5R and BF-F8HP without any issues. Feels secure, with no wobble or fit problems.✅ Adds Some Grip: It’s a bit bulkier (as expected for a higher capacity), but the added size actually improves the feel in the hand. It gives the radio a sturdier, more substantial grip.📌 Things to know before you buy:Slightly heavier and taller than the stock battery, but totally worth it for the extra capacity.Not all holsters or cases will fit with the larger size, so check if you're using accessories.Final thoughts: If you rely on your Baofeng radio or just want the peace of mind of longer battery life, the BL-5L is a must-have. Reliable, convenient, and affordable. Highly recommended for preppers, hikers, ham operators, or anyone serious about staying connected.

Excellent Battery

These batteries have a higher capacity than the stock ones. I’ve left my UV5R on overnight and woke up to it still having all 3 bars or only down to 2 bars of charge. The USB-C charging is really nice. It has a factory appearance and doesn’t appear out of place on the handset, while giving more surface area to hold onto. (While still being small enough to remain portable) It works well and still charges on the cradle so it’s more flexible than the stock ones.

Must have accessory for UV5R radios

This larger capacity battery for the Baofeng uv5r are a must have accessory. They give much more life than the original small battery. One of them charges with a usb c to enable continous power like say for instance if you wanted to have the radio always powered on in the car using the power port on the car. The other ones that hold a charge are also rechargeable thru the side of the battery which is nice because on the original small battery you have to charge it via the charging dock, which I don't like as it could break on you. Out of three radios I bought one of the charging stations was broke out of box and didn't work versus when you buy these batteries it comes with a cord to charge throught the side dc 12v round port. Nice size fills out the rest of the shape of the radio. Not too heavy for the size and capacity that it offers.

Fit the radio just like original OEM battery. Charged in factory cradle without issues.

The battery fit and charged up using the factory charging cradle. I did not charge it for the first time with it installed on the radio, just incase of a problem. After charging, it slipped right on the radio and snapped in place just like an OEM battery. I ran the radio (monitoring only) all day with no drop showing on the battery charge indicator. We will see how it holds up on the next outing with actual real world use.
