Lithium Ion version of the Icom BP173 and BP180. This battery is not compatible with the original charger. When you order from us, it comes with a free lithium Ion charger included at no extra cost. Much higher capacity than the original BP173 and the BP180, the lithium Ion version will last much longer on a charge than the original. Comes with a one-year warranty and a 30-day money back guarantee.
We carry nearly all accessories for the Icom IC-W31E. If you are looking for a battery or electronic accessory and can't find it, please feel free to contact us.
As always, it depends on the type of battery. Nicad, NiMH and Li-Ion all have different charging methods. Generally though, it should only take two hours on a rapid charger and 4-6 hours on a standard charger. Some specialized chargers take longer, such as charger-conditioners.
Intrinsically safe batteries are batteries that are designed to work in dangerous environments where batteries could accidentally set off explosive gasses or combustible material. If you need to communicate around oil or propane refineries, textile factories, munitions, etc. then you must use intrinsically safe (or IS) batteries.
You can dispose of any batteries at any RBRC affiliated store. The RBRC (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) has members in every major city in the United States. There is no charge to drop your batteries off there. Home Depot and Radio Shack are two of its predominant members.
