Review on Baofeng BF-888S Radio by Ada Borkowska ᠌

Pros: Good radio. Many wrote positive reviews about the quality and range of communication. I confirm. But! Has some cons The charger is useless! It will kill the battery in a couple of months. The thing is that the charger does not monitor the voltage on the Akum. It puts out 5v which is a lot. The battery does not have a charging driver. Hence the strong heating of Akuma, with all the consequences. Exit. I put a Chinese driver for charging lithium batteries in the charger, it charges up to 4.2V and turns off. He threw out the original scheme completely. As a result, I got the opportunity to charge both from the network through any phone charger, and from a car through an adapter.
