https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/4efcfaf8-48f1-495f-8e7f-29a297f59d7d At Dayton Hamvention 2026 I caught up with Kevin from W0AEZ Radio Gear for a quick 3-minute overview of his popular extended-life HT radio batteries for amateur radio handhelds. Kevin talks about high-capacity USB-C rechargeable battery packs designed for popular handheld ham radios including Yaesu and Kenwood HTs. These aftermarket ham radio batteries are becoming popular with operators looking for longer runtime, field portability, emergency communications reliability, POTA activations, ARES events, and everyday carry ham radio setups. (W0AEZ Radio Gear LLC) If you’re tired of short OEM battery life on your handheld transceiver, this video gives a fast look at upgraded HT battery options for radios like the Yaesu FT-5DR, FT-70, Kenwood TH-D74, TH-D75, and more. We also briefly discuss USB-C charging, extended operating time, and portable ham radio power solutions for field ops and hamfest use.
