Battery Life
Your radio uses a rechargeable Lithium Ion
Based on 5% transmit, 5% receive, 90% standby (standard duty cycle):
•NNTN4655
•SNN5706
Battery life is determined by several factors. Among the more critical are the regular overcharge of batteries and the average depth of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the greater the overcharge and the deeper the average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery will last.
For example, a battery which is overcharged and discharged 100% several times a day, lasts fewer cycles than a battery that receives less of an overcharge and is discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery which receives minimal overcharging and averages only 25% discharge, lasts even longer.
WARNING: Care should be taken to avoid external short circuiting of the battery. A sustained
