Will the BF-F8+ still work with the "drop in" charger with this radio attached?

If I understand your question correctly, then yes. The extended battery will work in the charger that comes with the radio.

The charging part only works for the 30 pin connector (4s and earlier) but the radio part does.

I also had an FH20 - it broke - error message with lens not opening and price to fix vs new one was silly so just bought new one, SZ7. The battery for the SZ7 is thinner, so the old FH20 one will not fit in the camera. However, the other dimensions are the same, so I popped the SZ7 battery into the wall charger from my FH20, the green light went on and it charged. Now I am not a technical person or battery expert so I have no idea if this is in any way harming the battery, but it does fit in the charger, green light goes on and it charges.

It's not listed, but as long as your charger fits and you can make the ground pins and the positive pin connect you'll be fine.

The charger actually will need to be plugged into the Li-ion BATTERY CHARGER unit (AC/DC ADAPTER) that comes with the Baofeng, NOT the radio itself. My base unit says "Model: CH-5" on the decal located on the bottom of the charger unit. Plug in the Car Charger Cable adapter into your vehicle, then put your Baofeng into the Base unit. You should see the Red LED come on to indicate that it is charging. If you do not see the Red LED, double check to make sure your Baofeng is properly seated AND the charger is all the way into the 12V adapter in your vehicle. Aloha, Bill.

Yes it does work, I have the F8HP and this unit. It plugs right in and works fine.

I only have the one device and a different charger, swo I cannot answer you. If it does not show as applicable I'd be wary....

Yes, just like the UV-5R the BF-F8+ supports FM broadcast receiving. Please don't confuse this with FM broadcast transmitting... Neither this nor the UV-5R support FM broadcast TRANSMITTING... Manufacturer's website: http://baofengtech.com/bf-f8+

Mine ordered 9/25/14 from Amazon with the Distributor being Baofeng Tech came with the inverted display (white/illuminated text on black screen) opposite to what is pictured). Also it is not the BF-F8 model as in the pictures and description, it is the BF-F8+. The only difference seems to be the addition of the LED flashlight.

Yes, it is compatible with the F-9 Tri Power BF model radio. The performance overall is better than the standard "rubber duckie" that is supplied with the radio from the factory. With the 8 watt option and the 77a antenna you should have exceptional coverage based on my experience. KM4BTW

I received mine today and the screen is not inverted. CHIRP reports the firmware as BFS313. I believe that's a later revision than others have reported and supports the theory that Baofeng is shipping new BF-F8+ units without inverted screens (purportedly due to negative feedback from customers).

If you see a non inverted LCD screen, then I don't believe you have the BF-F8+. The BF-F8+ is the 2nd Generation of radio for the Baofeng UV-5R (and the newest radio version). It is possible that you ordered an eariler version/(older 1st Generation) Baofeng UV-5R. One of the differences is that the older version radio is the [light background and black text]. Look at the label at the bottom of the radio below the numeric keypad, does it have the model number BF-F8+ ? If not, you have an eariler version of UV-5R

Yes. I purchased this for a Baofeng BF-F8+ and it is an excellent upgrade. The stock antenna is worthless on the Baofeng.

I do not know. But generally the chargers are compatible because NP-FH50 is from Sony. I would recommend calling Tech-support before buying.

Correct, this is mainly for an Aux input, but it still is a great charger alone ! You could link it to a fm transmitter also.

This cable plugs into the drop-in charger, allowing you to use the drop-in charger from a 12vdc source. It does NOT plug directly into either the radio or the battery.
