Aftermarket battery that replaces the 760 mAh NI-MH battery (BP-200L) for the Icom IC-A5 and Icom IC-A23.
1450mAh Ultra Long Life high capacity Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack. Includes heavy-duty Belt Clip. Pack is same thickness as the AA alkaline case. Provides Hi-Watt TX!
What's the difference between Ni-Cad and Ni-MH batteries?
The main difference between the two is that NiMH battery (the newer technology
of the two) offers a higher energy density than NiCads. In other words, the
capacity of a NiMH is approximately twice the capacity of its NiCad counterpart.
What this means is for you is increased run-time from the battery with no
additional bulk or weight. NiMH also offers another major advantage: NiCad
batteries tend to suffer from what is called the "memory effect". NiMH batteries
are less prone to develop this problem and thus require less maintenance and
conditioning. NiMH batteries are also more environmentally friendly than NiCad
batteries since they do not contain heavy metals (which present serious landfill
problems).
Will my original wall charger work with this battery?
Yes, this battery will work just like the battery that came with your
transceiver. It's can use the same
Icom BC-110 wall
charger that came with your radio
Will this battery work with the
Icom BC-119 Rapid
Desktop Charger?
No, this battery is slightly thicker than the original battery so it will
not fit in the charging cup on the
Icom Rapid Charger.
If you want a Rapid Charger, you will need to go with our
Super Charger for
the IC-A5 / IC-A23.

Q: I have a Icom ic-a5 with a 760 mAH bp-200L battery. How much thicker is this battery and will the existing radio plug in charger work?
A: Hello, this battery is slightly thicker than the original battery but not by much. This will work just like the battery that came with your transceiver and you can use the same wall charger as well. The only thing you will not be able to do is use the Icom BC-119 Rapid Desktop Charger.

Q: I'm trying to find out if this battery will charge in the rapid charger that I just bought from you. The original battery that came with my ICOM A23 won't charge with the rapid charger that I bought from you so I'm looking for another battery. This says that the battery will work with the ICOM , but the rapid charger says it works with the BP-200H and 200F. When I type that into your search engine it comes up with this battery, but doesn't indicate the type battery! Please let me know if this battery will work with the charger that I purchased from you.... Thanks Bruce
A: No, this battery is slightly thicker than the original battery so it will not fit in the charging cup on the Icom Rapid Charger.
Q: How long does it take to charge the 750 mah battery. Is it O K to leave on wall charger overnight?
A: Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMh) can be recharged quickly and easily, do not suffer from "memory effect" and do not need to be fully discharged before recharging. There is no risk if you charge it when there is still a charge left on it, or left overnight.
