It fits the IC-3101, IC-4101, IC-F3001, IC-F3002, and over a dozen additional Icom handheld transceivers that share the same BP-265 form factor and connector. Capacity is 3350mAh (24.79Wh), matching the original pack specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIC-3101 \/ IC-F3001 platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same battery bay geometry, gold contact strip layout, and BMS handshake protocol. One pack covers the full BP-265 footprint across professional and recreational Icom handheld lines without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this pack through charge and transmit cycles on an IC-F3001. The BMS handled the PTT transmit current spike without tripping overcurrent cutoff, and the charger dock accepted the handshake within one charge cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst insertion into the charger dock:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If the dock shows a fault LED on first insertion, remove the pack and wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth before reseating. The Icom charger platform requires a clean contact cycle to complete the BMS handshake before charging will begin.\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\"\u003eNew BP-265 packs ship at storage voltage — typically around 3.7V per cell, not the 4.2V per cell a full charge would show. Some Icom dock chargers check cell voltage at first contact and throw a fault LED if the reading falls outside their expected window. This is a dock-side voltage threshold response, not a defective pack. Wipe the contacts, reseat the battery firmly, and the dock should begin a normal charge cycle. If the fault LED persists, allow the pack to warm to room temperature and retry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBar indicator shows 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 use a simple voltage-threshold bar indicator — each bar corresponds to a voltage band, not a percentage calculated by a fuel gauge chip. A new pack at storage voltage sits in a lower band and will display one fewer bar than a fully charged cell. This is not a capacity fault. Run a full charge cycle first — the dock green LED confirms completion — then check the indicator. At full charge the cells should read above 8.3V across the pack and the indicator will reflect that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43291748040794,"sku":"BWCS-ICM410TH-1","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43291748073562,"sku":"BWCS-ICM410TH-2","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43291748106330,"sku":"BWCS-ICM410TH-3","price":70.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ICM410TH_1.webp?v=1777520717","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/icom-ic-3101-replacement-battery-74v-3350mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
