It fits the IC-H2, IC-H6, IC-H12, IC-H16, and over 46 additional models in that family. Voltage and connector match the original Icom specification — no adapters needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIC-H series platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The IC-H2 through IC-H16 share a common 13.2V battery rail and the same physical latch and contact layout. Any pack built to the BP-7 footprint drops into all of them without modification. The BMS handshake protocol is identical across the series.\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 the IC-H2 dock. The BMS held within the expected voltage window during PTT spikes and the dock moved from charge to trickle without fault flags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst insertion into the Icom dock:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If the charger shows a fault LED on the first insertion, remove the pack and wipe the gold contact strip with a dry cloth before reseating. The Icom dock requires a clean contact read to accept the BMS handshake — a single reseat typically clears it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eIC-H2 transmit cutout on a fresh BP-7 pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA new Ni-MH pack ships at storage voltage — typically 11.8V to 12.2V, not the full 13.2V operating level. When you key the PTT on a pack at storage voltage, the transmit current spike can pull the cell stack below the BMS low-voltage cutoff threshold. The radio reads this as a fault and drops TX. Run one full charge cycle before first use and the cutout stops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBar indicator showing one fewer bar than expected on a new pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe IC-H series uses a simple voltage-threshold bar indicator — each bar maps to a specific voltage band, not a capacity percentage. A new pack fresh off storage charge sits in the 12.0V range, which puts it one threshold below the top bar. After a full charge cycle brings the pack to 13.2V, the indicator moves to the correct level. If the top bar still does not appear after a full charge, check that the dock contacts are clean and that the charge cycle completed — dock contact resistance causes incomplete charging more often than a faulty cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426361442394,"sku":"BWCS-ICM700TW-1","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426361475162,"sku":"BWCS-ICM700TW-2","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426361507930,"sku":"BWCS-ICM700TW-3","price":70.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ICM700TW-1.webp?v=1779930808","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/icom-ic-h2-replacement-battery-132v-1000mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
