Review on πŸ”Œ BTECH USB Smart Charger Transformer Cable for BaoFeng, BTECH BF-F8HP, UV-82HP, UV-5R, UV-5X3 - Compatible with CH-5, CH-8 Charger Base by Chris Cooper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They work well with Baofeng BF-8+ with standard battery

I read the reviews and had my doubts about chargers but decided to give it a try. 2 cars (2 walkie-talkies), 7 day trip from California to Tennessee, charging at least 10 hours a day - not a single problem. They stay slightly warm, definitely not hot and don't even reach the melting point of plastic - I tested them every hour for a couple of days. Of course, this can be due to the power consumption, but with a standard rechargeable battery (with charger on the radio tripod) it works without complaint. I have no hesitation in recommending it, but I'll repeat - I used a standard Baofeng BF-F+ battery.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Contemporary
