- By Thomas from Huntington Beach CA USA on Tuesday, May 20, 2014
- Pros: Hey, it's a battery. It works with my transciever.
- Cons: none
- Review: The product works great, but, what really blew me away was the response by your customer service/order processing people. I ordered the battery on a Friday and received it in a couple of days. I love that kind of service! I'll certainly shop mypilotstore first!

Excellent replacement
- By Bob from Westfield, MA on Monday, April 11, 2016
- Pros: Drop in replacement
- Cons: none
- Review: I didn't want to throw away my old icom transceiver because the battery wouldn't hold a charge anymore as the radio and nav work fine. This replacement battery has now worked great for over a year and holds a charge longer than the original ever could.

Gave new life to old radio
- By Hans from Penrose CO USA on Monday, June 04, 2012
- Review: The battery for my old Icom died sometime ago and the replacement 1100mAh NI-MH has great staying power. The slide rails are a bit tight but using a slight amount of silicon lube allows the battery to slide effortlessly into the rail.

There are two batteries in an ICOM A20
- By Paul from Warrnambool VIC Australia on Tuesday, November 15, 2011
- Pros: Longer life
- Cons: Does not address the memories 1-16
- Review: The battery I ordered works fine. It lasts longer than the old original. My problem is the memories 1-16 are not held. It turns out there is a Panasonic BR2325 (coin size) battery in the guts of the electronics that requires a very fine tipped soldering iron to exchange. Having said this. The new lithium lasts longer.

I would buy this product again.
- By Gary from Glendale CA USA on Monday, August 22, 2011
- Pros: Works and holds a charge extremely well!
- Cons: None I have observed.
- Review: I use this battery to power my Icon handheld air band tranceiver for mundane things like obtaining IFR clearances and ATIS info prior to engine start. However, last week I incurred my first and only comm. failure while airborne. I used my Icom to transmit to ATC for my approach and landing and the radio and especially the battery performed beyond my expectations. In 12 minutes it paid for itself many times over!

Just as advertised
- By Jeffrey from Granada Hills CA USA on Saturday, July 11, 2009
- Pros: It works just as advertised.
- Cons: None
- Review: This battery is just like the original that came with the radio and performs in an identical manner. It even came fully charged so I could use it immediately. My Icom A-21 was used twice over the years in real emergencies when my C-172 lost all electrical power in flight. I would be lost with the portable radio and the new battery put it back on the map as a serious radio back up.

Excellent Replacement for my A21
- By Jack from Texas on Thursday, October 06, 2016
- Pros: Perfect reolacement - better than OEM
- Cons: None
- Review:
Battery works well and glad that was available as my old battery would not hold a charge.
The battery was a tight fit at first and it almost stuck the first time I slid it onto the radio. I used a small bar of soap to lubricate it -that was all that was needed.
I'd buy it again. - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 1 Other people found this review helpful.

- By Doug from Lyndon Station WI USA on Thursday, March 22, 2012
- Pros: I perfect fit and great replacement
- Cons: Color match isn't perfect - if that's an issue for you.
- Review: Works perfectly - brought my very old raido back from the dead. I was very skeptical when I ordered the battery, thinking that it probably woulnd't work or fit in my charger. I was totally wrong. It slid in perfectly (a little tight but not to the extent I thought it would break), and immediately charged as it should. Perfect.

Great Battery!
- By Douglas from Fall City WA USA on Wednesday, September 05, 2012
- Pros: incredible battery life
- Cons: VERY tight fit.
- Review: Definitely met my expectations. was a VERY tight fit getting it on, however once I charged it I left the radio on from 2pm one day to 6am the next morning and it was still working fine. The original battery was good for maybe 2 hours when it was new. Well worth the investment

I'm back on the air, thanks to this product.
- By Christopher from Claremont CA USA on Monday, October 29, 2012
- Pros: No problems with installing and excellent, immediate service, once charge.
- Cons: I wish it had only cost ten bucks.
- Review: This battery pack holds its charge well, provides dependable service, and was a bargain. Just yesterday, my 82 year old sister was in the pattern at CCB, California, with N6757A, her straight tail Cessna 172, just out of annual, and I easily communicated with her 5X5 several times while awaiting her landing. That was a celebration transmission with the new battery pack on my Icom.

A great product
- By Tim from Sudbury Suffolk United Kingdom on Monday, March 12, 2012
- Pros: Does precisely what it says on the can.
- Cons: None. Actually improves what is an old product by doubling its time between charges. Icom would be very pleased.
- Review: This battery unit brought my old Icom IC-A20 transceiver back up to date. It's time before needing a charge doubled compared to my existing battery. Also, I'd had read somewhere that it may be a tight fit, not true in my case it fits perfectly. It's a very slightly different colour but I'm guessing my unit has changed colour very slightly over the years any so it makes no difference and is not easily noticed. It's a transceiver afterall, not a Gucci dress...!!!

- By A Customer from Bolingbrook IL USA on Wednesday, October 29, 2008
- Pros: long life
- Cons: none
- Review: Inherited a 10-year-old Icom radio with a battery that lasted 2.3 hours on a full charge. This replacement lasted 22.7 hours of continuous "on" with an occasional outgoing message. The color is off by just one tint or so, but with this performance, who cares? No problem getting on or off. I'm going to buy another as a back-up.

- Pros: Great replacement. Better that original in charging capacity.

- Review: I had an Icom-A20 "dead" for about 7 years due to failure of its original battery. Got somewhat of a replacement battery in you know where ...Shack. Never was able to transmit, only hear pilot/tower conversation, even though mah and volts in the replacement claimed to be the same! I purchased your NI-MH battery, came quickly, installed and Walah! It Alive!! My old Icom A-20 is working properly and the battery charge last almost as twice as the original. By the way, I save some bucks since I did not have to by a new radio.

Instead of a new radio I got a great battery
- By Mark from San jose CA USA on Tuesday, July 05, 2011
- Pros: Solid power for an older radio
- Cons: None that I can think of right now....
- Review: I was thinking about replacing my IC-A20 with a newer radio. I also have an IC-A23 that I also bought a battery for. The last time a bought a battery for the A20 the connection was unreliable and the battery didn't last very long. Not this time. The connection is solid and the battery lasts the entire day. Instead of a new radio, I think I breathed some life into my old A20.
