What about the UV-5R+Plus? I purchased the 3800 mAh super cell for it and it didn't fit. I had to ship it back. Will this one fit the UV-5R+Plus?

Yes. I pulled the battery from my UV-5R+Plus and it has a "model BL-5" battery, which is the same model advertised in the battery's Technical Details. I'm about to order one and will report back if there is a problem. UPDATE 2/15/14: It appears to be a factory BL-5 battery... Fits and works fine in the UV-5R+Plus.

I'm not sure on the Plus if it fits, it should, I just have the uv-5r. My advice would be try it and if it doesn't fit return it. I initially bought the Baofeng for a emergency portable, I live in a hurricane zone and I work fire rescue so for us it's a great backup to our secure com system since our Hammies are a huge help when our multi million dollar system fails.

I purchased the UV-5RE and I just checked and it does have a 1800mAh battery, which matches the description.

The extended battery is made to fit the UV-5R. I had a UV-5RA, and I can tell you it did not fit. But I read somewhere that you can file down some of the plastic tabs on either the battery or radio to make a better fit on the UV-5RA.

Battery is 1800mAh li-ion battery. It was mislabeled from the factory as 2800mAh. This same seller does sell extended batteries for UV-82 based models which will fit on this 82X.

I have a UV-5R, but if the uv-5X is VHF(144-148)/UHF(440-450) and it fits, there is no reason why it should not.

It will have to be modified with a dremel or x-acto knife, just like the UV-5R 3800mah batteries have to be modified to fit in the UV-5R+.

The bases of the UV5R variants differ from model to model.This battery works extremely well on the UV5R and BFF8.The reason for the incompatibility can be seen in the photo shown athttp://www.miklor.com/uv5r/images/CaseDifference1.jpg

If it don't have BL-5 on it. Don't take a chance. Spend the extra dollar and get one with BL-5 on it.Then you know it will work. I think, all the Uv-5R's take the same battery.

The 3800 mAH battery pack for the UV5R should fit this radio as it was designed specifically for backwards compatibility with the uv5r

this Battery didn't fit my Samsung Transform Ultra, it was to big. i just kept it in case i needed or someone i know needed it. But what ever you order should specifically say it fits your cell phone.

Do you mean the BOEFANG uv5r? This one wouldn't fit mine so I bought an extra reg size one.

I have to agree with Daniel. I haven't seen a single high capacity battery that will fit any of the UV-5R knock-off versions of the radio. Yes, you can modify the battery to make it fit, but if you make a mistake in the modification, no vendor is going to take it back after it's been modified. If at all possible, it's better to stick with the original UV-5R so that all of the accessories work right out of the box.

I have the exact same model and ordered it. It fit but juts out further than the original battery and is heavier. it did hold over 4 hours of time when I charged it.

As far as frequency coverage, the expert power antenna is superior to the stock antenna that comes with the radio. I use this antenna with my UV-5R and I'm very happy with its performance. As long as your 5R+ has the same SMA male antenna jack as my UV-5R, you're good to go. Here is a link to SWR contours of the expert power 14.5 and the stock antenna. http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B008Y2SPE4/ref=cm_cr_dp_cust_img_see_all_txt I hope that helps.

The 7.4 volt, 3800 Mah battery, Model BL-5L fits the Baofeng UV-5R+ radio if you use your Dremel tool and shave a little plastic on the inside of the battery pack. This is not an exact fit situation, but you can see where the battery plastic is in the way. A little trimming and it fits fine. As far as I knew, they had no exact fit for the 5R+ radio at the time. Maybe they do now ?. Bill Fry

I have the Uv-5re plus. It fit perfectly. The lock was tight and had to use a screw driver to release it. Filed down the locking tab a little and took care of the problem.
