My radio uses 15 amps when transmitting, will this battery work?

I would say no if you are using the battery alone.That is too much of a continuous draw, but just barely. If you had it hooked up to a charger, and had the charger on while transmitting, you would be perfectly fine. The battery would be the buffer, and the charger would help stabilize the voltage, as the volts should never drop below 10.5 minimum. 11-11.5 for the best battery life. I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions. Also a cheap volt meter display, or multi meter would help you watch the battery level. As if you had a cheap charger it could over charge it, 14.7vdc is max for long periods. I would say no if you are using the battery alone.That is too much of a continuous draw, but just barely.

As long as your radio runs on 12VDC. This battery is rated 12amp hours which means it can supply 12 amps at 12VDC for 1 hour before being drained and needing a charge.

I use this battery for power drive on a wheelchair ,it puts out 15 amp for 20 min. then start to drop of ,but i'm powering a 400watt motor

I am not sure on the Amps Cliff, I do not have that kind of radio anymore, I have the newer one now, sorry, maybe try google

Absolutely. The RF battery will not alter how your remote works today, it simply adds RF.

Yes, but you have to make certain it is HD along with the female source side, the amp draw on TX will burn most 5-10 amp fuses. The radio comes with two inline 15 amp fuses. So you should look for a 15 amp plug and source.

Sure, it should work. It plugs in the back of the radio and grounds itself.

I looked up the fuse size on Crutchfield and it is a 15 amp fuse in this amp. Crutchfield recommends running a dedicated power wire to this amp from your battery. I would agree with them.

Yes, this battery would definitely help you out. In time you may even want to add another one for all your amps to help the vehicle battery stay free from the audio system!! But make sure you have a strong alternator to keep up with all the extra batteries or adding batteries will do you no good! Best of luck

Patrick: I cannot answer your question directly except to say that I looked up the spec's for your radio and it says that the vehicle power cord for this unit is rated at 5v output so it shoud work properly, (especially if the plug going into the radio fits properly). I hope this helps.... If it blows out the radio, then there is too much power going to the radio. If on the other hand, the power cord blows out and NOT the radio, then there is too much power going into the adaptor and it will blow the fuse therein. Make sure you only have 12v going into the power cord fromt he vehicle's battery.

I guess it will work while your batteries accept 14 volts of charge. I have 2 batteries on my sailboat and both are been charged simultaneously. Just check that the coach battery is a 12 volts barttery, for the car batery no problem

as long as you have a compatable induction type battery it should be good to go. let me know how it works out and good luck, Patrick

The battery that came with my radio is a Lithium-Ion 7.4 Volt battery rated at 1250 mAh. Keep in mind, a battery adaptor that uses size AA alkaline batteries can be purchased for this radio. However, the AA battery pack power will not last long if one does much transmitting with it installed. The Alkaline battery pack seems to be designed more for radio reception.

Not sure, i went by diamentions, voltage and ampH if all those match your battery it should work for your application.

It fits in my DCRO18 radio fine. If your radio is meant to take a 20v MAX battery, there will be a sticker on the back telling you what batteries are supported. Most of the current radios will take a 20v MAX unit.

I purchased this battery for my walk behind golf cart, it is a 12V 22ah, Length 7.13 inches width 3.03" and height of 6.5", if these dimension will accomadate your battery compartment and the voltage/Amps are coorrect it should work for you.Width 3.03 inches Height 6.57 inches Weight 14.60 lbs

You are mixing watt hours with milli amp hours in your question. If the battery is made for the product it should work okay. The current rating of the battery is not very critical. If the new battery is of a higher current rating it will take a bit longer to charge.

I don't, I gave it to one of my family members that is an electronic whiz. My advice is that the battery sold for it is the wrong one or the radio is defective.

I use the 3800mAH battery off my uv-5re. Either of my 5re batteries work on this radio. I did not see one on the baofeng tech site; I purchased mine previously elsewhere.
