Work well
Seem to hold a charge well and last a lot longer than the original, smaller battery. Charge with the USB C and in the factory cradle. Fit and finish is good.

Good extended battery
I like the new extended batteries for the Baofeny UV-5R radio. The USB-C charging port makes it very convenient.

BF-F8HP extended battery with USB capability charging
This battery fit my BF-F8HP perfectly. I have one radio that is about 6 years old and one that is brand new and it fits perfect on both. They charged in about 2.5 hours from the shipping charge to full and function as they should. I just ordered two more so I’m guaranteed to have a full battery for any hunting or off road trips although they can be easily charged via the USB port in my RV, SXS or truck. They can also be charged on the OEM 120v dock. I would definitely make the jump if using a BF-F8HP because it pushes 8 watts and needs extra battery. Nice to have spares in the back pack!

Great upgrade for batteries
Gets rid of having to carry the bulky charging stand and can use USB-C cables I already have. So far battery life has lasted on road trips

Doesn’t quite fit older UV-5Rs
Update: bought two new radios and the batteries fit perfectly. They just won't work with older vintages.Will not latch into my UV5R. Pushes right up against the latch and looks the same, but won’t quite push in far enough. Looks like it doesn’t allow room for the profile on the bottom of the radio. Maybe they work on newer models. This one is 5 years old.

Nice upgrade!
Installed these on some older UV-5R’s. Makes charging really easy! They work great!

Muy buena opción
Tienen mucha capacidad, los ocupe para un evento de AirSoft y lo deje prendido por horas en el frio, use lámpara, modo radio y no bajo la batería ni una línea. Recomendado
