Icom BC152N
Desktop Trickle Charger
Reliable Low-Current Charging for Mission-Critical Handhelds
The Icom BC152N is a dedicated desktop trickle charger designed for the consistent maintenance of professional portable radios. Unlike rapid chargers that use high current, the BC152N provides a steady 200 mA charge that is gentler on battery chemistry, helping to preserve the long-term capacity and health of your Li-Ion power cells, specifically the BP-227 battery pack.
This compact charging cradle is an essential accessory for users who prefer overnight charging or need a stable base for their radio when not in use. It features a built-in LED charge indicator to provide clear status updates at a glance. Engineered for precision, it ensures that charging contacts remain perfectly aligned for a consistent connection. Please note: This charger requires the BC-147SA/SE AC adapter, which must be purchased separately.
