It matches OEM voltage and capacity exactly. Swap is direct — same connector, same BMS handshake protocol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIC-F3400 series platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    All IC-F3400 variants share a common 7.4V power rail, locking latch connector, and BMS communication line. BP-283, BP-284, and BP-303 are all electrically interchangeable within this platform — Icom issued multiple part numbers across production runs, not separate designs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through repeated PTT transmit loads on the IC-F3400 platform. The BMS handled the transmit current spike without triggering overcurrent cutoff, and the dock accepted the pack's BMS handshake on the first insertion cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst insertion on the dock:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If the charger shows a fault LED on the first insertion, remove the pack, wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth, and reseat firmly. The IC-F3400 dock requires a clean contact cycle to complete the BMS handshake before charging begins — a single wipe clears most first-charge faults.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eIC-F3400 cuts out mid-transmission on a freshly inserted pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe IC-F3400 draws a sharp current spike at the moment PTT is pressed — transmit current is significantly higher than receive or standby draw. If the replacement pack ships at storage voltage (typically around 3.7V per cell), the BMS may read an instantaneous voltage sag under that transmit load and trigger an overcurrent protection cutoff. The radio goes silent mid-key. This is not a faulty battery — it is the BMS acting correctly on a cell that hasn't reached nominal charge. Charge the pack to full before the first transmission test; 7.4V nominal on the dock indicator clears this entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBar indicator showing one fewer bar than expected after fitting a new pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe IC-F3400 uses a voltage-threshold bar indicator — each bar corresponds to a voltage band, not a calculated state of charge. A new pack at storage voltage sits below the top threshold, so the radio displays three bars instead of four even though the cell is not depleted. This is normal for a pack that has not yet completed its first full charge. Place the pack in the dock and charge until the dock LED goes green. Once the pack reaches full voltage, the indicator will show the correct bar count on the next power cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426295480410,"sku":"BWCS-ICF340TW-1","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426295513178,"sku":"BWCS-ICF340TW-2","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426295545946,"sku":"BWCS-ICF340TW-3","price":61.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ICF340TW-1.webp?v=1779930584","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/icom-ic-f3400-replacement-battery-74v-1900mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
