Review on πŸ”‹ CD-41 Rapid Charge for Yaesu FT-1DR FT2DR VX-8R VX-8E VX-8DR VX-8DE VX-8GR Radio FNB-101LI: Accelerated Charging Solution by Mike Travers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Charges my FT-3DR well

Much cheaper than original Yaesu and charges just as well. I don't know if this device shares Yaesu's real weakness, which is that touching the middle pin with your finger destroys the FET device that regulates charging. I don't intend to test it. I just don't touch that contact with my finger. It is also easier to insert and remove the radio than the corresponding FT-70DR radio charger. This makes it a top product (and the FT-70DR cases I use are original Yaesu!)

Pros
  • Easy install
