I work as a ski patroller and it holds up well in the cold. Perfect fit without a lot of bulk. The battery lasted for 3 days and still had juice.

No complaints about the product, it does exactly what it's supposed to do and I think the price is reasonable. It also makes the radio somewhat awkward to me and easy to tip over. But that's the price to pay if you need the extra capacity I guess. Personally I think I'll stick to keeping an extra regular battery nearby if I need it, because this also made me realize that being tiny is kind of my favorite thing about these radios.

This is a great addition to the battery lineup for the radio. In situations where charging is not really an option.

The AI says this won't fit the 8 watt version. It's working just fine. (edit, it physically fits and works, only shows 3 /4 bars. Maybe this way from factory) Haven't used it long, but seems fine for the price, USB port is nice, Imma trust the fact it's in my UK-5R8W and working over the robot. Fits charger like crap, just like the original. Real person, or am I? I'm thinking this is perhaps basically a regular extended battery, with less juice than the 8 watt needs (longevity or weak transmission). Functions fine, transmits, operates on charger. So, I'm ok with that for the price. Subject to change!Returned it. Get a pack with radio's, and these...they end up costing like 5 bux per.

The fit is a little iffy, but it extends the battery life as intended.

I wasn't a fan of Baofeng until I got one, and now it's my favorite radio. Not because it's the best, simplest, or easiest to use, but because it IS so cheap that if I lose it or break it, I'm not out a lot of money. And, I have to say, it does work well. My only beef was the battery life wasn't very good. The extended battery is the perfect answer. While it is just over twice the stock battery in listed capacity, I've had it on monitor mode for two days staight and it's worked fine. I couldn't get over a day with the small stock battery. I also prefer it's size - it actually feels better in my hand than the stock one, and I don't seem to fumble or drop it as easily. It also makes the radio feel a bit more 'legitamate' as a radio rather than feeling like a small plastic childs toy. I wish I had purchased it sooner.
