BL-13UV Battery

Using the factory standard battery on my QRZ-1 Explorer wasn't making it through my hour long net controller shifts. This extended battery is working great. One tricky thing, Apple brand USB C chargers don't fit right and won't charge it, they're a little short. I reported this issue to support at Radioddity and they sent me another battery, so I can confirm this isn't a one off issue with the batteries. Very good support, they were quick to help. Android USB-C cables work perfectly, as they're slightly longer than the Apple ones.

This is the perfect solution for on the go charging. I carry my RT85 in my go bag, but never had a way to charge it without a 120 V outlet. Now I can charge it for my solar charger, power bank, or 120 V outlet. Comes with its own belt clip. At this practice, you can’t go wrong, I couldn’t be happier.

Great replacement batteries for the Retevis RT-85 that gives you a bigger battery with usb-c charging over the smaller stock battery that is not usb-c capable. I like the belt clips being included with the batteries as well so I don't have to swap them while switching out to the spares.

I love that I can charge this battery on the road without a radio cradle. Works and fits fine with my TYT UV88. But I hate that my USB C only fast chargers for my phone do NOT work with it! So I still need to carry an extra charger with a USB-A to USB-C cable. (Another review suggested this may only support 5v only chargers.) But that’s better than carrying around an AC-only cradle to charge. So, 3.5 stars but upgrading to 4 stars because the price is affordable priced for a battery for a $40 radio, and since so many batteries aren’t USB chargeable yet (even tho this does it wrong, at least it’s USB chargeable!).

Fits RT85, adds USB C charging and good capacity

Radioddity GM-30 GMRS Radio Handheld Battery with Belt Clip, Rechargeable, BL-13UV Yes the battery is currently cost half as much as the radio but without them the radio is completely worthless. Certainly worth having a spare battery if you play on the radio as much as I do Would I recommend it? Absolutely yes. Perfect fit it's the exact same battery is what came with your gmrs radio.

Bought it as a bach-up battery for a QRZ-1 HT. Works fine, longer battery life than the one that came with the radio. No complaints, just wish it had a USB charge option.

Battery charges up well so far, uses USB C charger that came with transceiver. Arrived intact, on time, and affordable price. Thanks !
