It fits the IC-3101, IC-4101, IC-F3001, IC-F3002, and 16 additional Icom models on the same platform. Same connector housing, same BMS handshake protocol as the original pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIC-F3001 \/ IC-3101 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share a common 7.4V rail, identical battery bay geometry, and the same BMS communication line. One pack covers the full series because Icom standardised the BP-265 footprint across this transceiver family.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through transmit-cycle loads on an IC-F3001 dock. The BMS held stable across repeated PTT bursts without overcurrent trip, and the charger dock advanced to green within the normal charge window.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst insertion on the IC-F3001 dock:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If the dock shows a fault LED on first insertion, remove the pack, wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth, and reseat firmly. The Icom dock requires a clean contact cycle to complete the BMS handshake before charging begins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eIC-F3001 charger dock fault LED after BP-265 swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA new BP-265 ships at storage voltage — typically around 3.7V per cell, or roughly 7.4V total. Some Icom dock firmware interprets this as a marginal or depleted pack and throws a fault LED instead of starting a charge cycle. The fix is to clean the gold contacts and reseat the pack. If the fault LED persists, confirm the dock supply voltage at the wall adapter — the BC-193 and BC-197 docks require a stable 12V input to accept a pack at storage voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBar indicator showing one fewer bar than expected on a new BP-265\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe IC-3101 and IC-F3001 read battery level from voltage thresholds, not a fuel gauge chip. A new cell at storage voltage sits below the top threshold, so the radio displays one bar short of full — this is not a fault. Place the pack in the charger dock and run a full charge cycle to 8.4V before use. Once the dock goes green and the pack reaches full charge voltage, the radio will display the correct bar count.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426333982810,"sku":"BWCS-ICM400TW-1","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426334015578,"sku":"BWCS-ICM400TW-2","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426334048346,"sku":"BWCS-ICM400TW-3","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ICM400TW-1.webp?v=1779930721","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/icom-ic-3101-replacement-battery-74v-2200mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
