Fits the Icom IC-A14 portable transceiver and replaces OEM part numbers BP-232, BP-232N, BP-232H, BP-230, BP-230N, BP-231, BP-231N, BJ-2000, and BP-232WP.
This 7.4V, 2200mAh lithium-ion cell delivers sustained power to the IC-A14's transmit and receive circuits without voltage sag during extended operations.
The battery slides into the radio's vertical slot with the connector facing forward and locks with a single thumbscrew on the pack spine.
We bench-tested this cell in an IC-A14 under sustained 5-watt transmission; the BMS accepted the pack immediately and held voltage flat across the full discharge curve.
If the charger dock shows a fault LED on first insertion, remove the battery and wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth before reseating firmly.

Battery Care Tips

🔹 Getting Started

Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.

🔹 Keep It Healthy

Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.

Delivery and Shipping

🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

Icom IC-A14 / IC-F14 Series — 7.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (BP-232)

This 7.4V, 2200mAh Li-ion battery replaces OEM part numbers BP-232, BP-232N, BP-232H, BP-230, BP-231, and related variants. It fits the Icom IC-A14 aviation handheld, IC-F14, IC-F14S, IC-F24, and over 100 additional Icom portable transceivers. Voltage and capacity match factory spec exactly.

  • IC-A14 / IC-F14 platform fit: These models share the same 7.4V two-cell Li-ion architecture, identical battery bay dimensions, and the same BMS handshake protocol over the contact strip — that is why one pack covers the full BP-232 compatibility range.
  • Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack through full charge and discharge on an IC-F14 dock and verified the BMS reported charge acceptance correctly, held stable voltage under PTT transmit load, and cut off cleanly at the lower threshold without radio shutdown errors.
  • First-insertion contact check: If the charger 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 — this is not a faulty battery.

IC-A14 cuts out mid-transmission on a new BP-232 pack

The IC-A14 draws a sharp current spike the moment PTT is pressed — transmit current can briefly exceed 1.5A before settling. A new cell shipped at storage voltage (around 3.7V per cell, 7.4V total) has higher internal impedance than a fully conditioned pack. The BMS reads that voltage sag as an overcurrent event and trips the protection circuit, cutting the radio mid-transmission. Run the pack through one full charge to 8.4V before the first field use and the impedance drops to operating range.

Bar indicator showing one fewer bar than expected after installing a new pack

The Icom bar indicator reads voltage thresholds only — it does not track capacity. A new cell at storage voltage sits below the top threshold, so the radio displays three bars instead of four even though the pack is not depleted. This is not a capacity fault. Charge the pack fully in the dock until the charge LED goes solid green, then reinsert — the indicator will read the correct voltage and display the full bar count.

Frequently Asked Questions

My IC-A14 drops to low transmit power partway through a shift — could the new battery be causing this?

Yes, this is voltage sag under sustained RF output. When the IC-A14 holds a long transmission, current draw stays elevated and cell voltage drops toward the radio's reduced-power threshold — typically around 6.8V under load. The radio steps down TX power to protect the BMS rather than cutting off entirely. Charge the pack fully before the shift and avoid back-to-back long transmissions until the cells have completed two or three full charge cycles to reach minimum impedance.

The charger dock fault LED came on and never cleared after I inserted the new BP-232 — what is happening?

The dock is refusing to start a charge cycle because the pack arrived at storage voltage, which can sit below the dock's acceptance floor. Icom chargers check pack voltage before engaging the charge circuit; if the cell reads below roughly 6.0V at the contacts, the dock flags a fault and stops. Remove the pack, wipe the gold contacts on both the battery and dock with a dry cloth, reseat firmly, and the dock should re-check and accept the pack within 30 seconds.

After the radio sat unused for three months with the old battery still in it, the new BP-232 I installed won't bring it back to life — is the radio damaged?

The radio is almost certainly fine — the issue is the old depleted cell may have pulled the new pack's voltage down during the swap if contacts bridged briefly, or the radio's internal protection tripped from deep discharge. Remove the new pack, charge it separately in the dock until the LED goes green (confirming it has reached 8.4V), then reinsert into the radio. If the radio still does not power on, hold the power button for 5 seconds to clear any latched power-off state before assuming a fault.
