Battery Life
Your radio uses a rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery.
Based on 5% transmit, 5% receive, 90% standby (standard duty cycle):
• NNTN4655 Li-Ion; Up to 20 Hours
• SNN5706 Li-Ion; Up to 15.5 Hours
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.
More bars on the battery indicate a greater charge. When the
battery is flashing, it is time to charge the radio.
