Review on ISaddle Battery Baofeng UV 5RB UV 5RE by Kimberly Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great to have in a pinch, but requires a bit of rigging to work properly.

Good as a last resort when the battery is low and you don't have a charger available and you can use the ubiquitous AA batteries. The fit and finish isn't great, getting in and out of the radio is a pain, and the rear battery cover doesn't snap properly (here's a manufacturing flaw - the clips don't go into their hole). , which requires tape or elastic to keep it closed.

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Quality
