Battery Care Tips
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
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-E85 / IC-F50 Series — 7.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (BJ-193 / BP-227Li)
This 7.4V, 2800mAh Li-ion pack replaces the BJ-193, BP-227Li, BP-274, and six other OEM part numbers across the Icom IC-E85, IC-F50, IC-F50V, IC-F51, and related handheld transceivers. It fits the same contact footprint and BMS handshake protocol as the original factory pack. Capacity is 2800mAh (20.72Wh) — use the product data figure, not third-party listings.
- IC-E85 and IC-F50 series compatibility: These models share a common 7.4V two-cell architecture, identical battery connector pinout, and the same BMS communication line. That is why one pack covers all of them — the voltage rail and handshake are the same across the range.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack on an IC-F50V under simulated PTT loads. The BMS handled repeated transmit current spikes without tripping into protection mode, and the charger dock accepted the handshake cleanly after the first full cycle.
- First insertion on the charger dock: If the dock LED stays red or blinks 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 it begins charging.
IC-E85 cutting out mid-transmission on a new BJ-193 pack
A new Li-ion cell ships at storage voltage — typically 3.7V per cell, giving around 7.4V total — not at full charge. When you press PTT, transmit current spikes sharply. If the cell voltage is already at the low end of storage, that spike can pull the pack voltage below the BMS cutoff threshold, triggering an instant shutdown. The fix is to run a full charge cycle before first use in the field. After a complete charge, resting voltage should read 8.2–8.4V across the pack terminals.
Bar indicator showing one fewer bar than expected after fitting new pack
The IC-E85 uses a simple voltage-threshold bar indicator — it maps measured pack voltage to a bar count, nothing more. A new pack at storage voltage reads lower than a fully charged pack, so the radio may display one or two bars even though the cells are healthy. This is not a capacity fault. Charge the pack fully and the indicator will step up to the correct level. A full charge brings pack voltage to approximately 8.4V, which maps to the top bar threshold on this platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
My IC-E85 drops to reduced transmit power partway through a long shift — is the new BJ-193 pack failing?
This is voltage sag under sustained RF output, not a faulty pack. During extended transmission, cell voltage drops under load; when it crosses the radio's reduced-power threshold, the IC-E85 steps down TX output to protect the finals. It is more pronounced early in a pack's life before the cells have broken in. Run two or three full charge-discharge cycles and the sag under load will decrease noticeably.
The charger dock blinks a fault pattern after I insert the new BP-227Li — it never clears on its own.
This usually means the pack arrived below the dock's acceptance voltage after storage. Remove the pack, wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth, and reseat it firmly. If the fault persists, the BMS may be in a lockout state from the low storage voltage — place the pack in the dock, leave it undisturbed for 15 minutes, and the dock should begin the trickle pre-charge phase, which brings the cell voltage back above the acceptance threshold before switching to normal charge current.
I pressed PTT on the IC-F50 and the radio cut out instantly — charger shows green but the pack won't hold under transmit load.
An instant cutout on PTT points to a BMS overcurrent trip triggered by the transmit current spike. This can happen if the pack has not completed a full conditioning cycle yet — storage voltage cells have higher internal impedance, which amplifies the voltage drop on the BMS sense resistor. Charge the pack fully, confirm resting voltage is 8.2–8.4V before inserting it back into the radio, then test PTT again. If it still trips at that voltage, check that the battery contacts are clean and seated fully in the radio's battery compartment.
