## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be plugged in while the radio is turned on?**
A: But do not key the transceiver while plugged in. I tried that and shorted my spendy usb wall adapter. Fortunately the adapter has surge protection and powered off.

**Q: This says uv-5r but i notice that the battery version is bl-5l which works with a ton of beofengs... anything to be concerned about?**
A: This is a very nice unit for charging the high capacity batteries the fit the UV5R series of radios... It plugs into the battery so it does not present a problem for your radio... Mine works fine for the high capacity batteries that I use on my UV5R Baofengs... I like it so much that I am waiting for the delivery of another one... Take care...

**Q: does this cable transform usb 5v to 2.5mm 10v?**
A: Not 10v, but just under 9 volts which is fine to charge baofeng batteries at. It steps up the usb 5v in up to 9 volts.

**Q: How is a 5v usb source converted to 7.4v battery storage?**
A: It would have special circuitry in it to convert 5 volts (5V from USB) up to the required charging voltage, probably around 8 volts (8V). It would most likely have what is called a DC-to-DC converter in it. DC-DC converters can take a voltage and convert it up or down to another voltage, and do it quite efficiently.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent USB charge cable for Baofeng 3800 mAh power plug
*by G***R on May 21, 2019*

Plugged in a high quality usb wall charger, then this cable to the Baofeng BL-5L power plug opening. Fit nicely, not loose and in solid. Measured battery voltage prior to trying cable. Then set timer for 10 minutes after plugging in. Watched measured voltage climb as battery charged thru cable. Purchased 4 of these excellent cables and all performed flawlessly. One mention though, you can monitor with radio on while charging, however, DO NOT TRY TRANSMITTING! The voltage will backtrack thru the cable and overload your USB wall plug. Fortunately, my USB wall charger has internal surge protection. The minute I transmitted with charge cable inline, the protected green light on USB wall charger went off. It cut the signal as it should have. Unplugged from wall outlet and waited 1 min for it to reset, which it did. Went into charge mode, after 10 minutes, I turned on radio and hit the transmit, cut the power again. Apparently, you cannot "use" the radio in transmit while charging with this cable. It is not a power supply but a charging cable. Well made and the light on top works 100%. Green when plugged into USB charge device, Red while charging radio, green when complete. Must have excellent wiring internally. I fully charged a new BL-5L, which ships usually 1/3 charged. It topped off the 3800 mAh to full charge in less than 1 hour. Very impressive 8.48 volts when finished, after letting it sit for 10 min before measuring voltage. Never got warm to the touch either. Glad I purchased 4 of them while available.
