Review on πŸ”‹ High-Quality FNB-V94 Replacement Battery Pack for Yaesu Vertex VX-410, VX-420, FT-60R – 7.2V 1800mAh Ni-MH Battery Pack by Mary Hawkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Exposing the 3rd metal tab

The battery fits my Yaesu Ft-270R perfectly. However, the standard charger that came with the radio did not charge. The third silver tab in the bottom corner of the battery was not visible. I used a small razor blade and scraped off a small amount of thin coating to reveal the metal and now it charges as it should. Obviously the charging system must be open and conductive to charge this battery! There were a few other comments in this battery pack review that mentioned a third metal tab. very easy to fix! I don't know why the seller didn't report this sooner!? The battery works great! I only rated it 4 stars because the sellers did not disclose the information that some radios require to use this battery successfully.

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • Some difficulties
