Replacement battery for YAESU FT-817

Product Information

No obscenities, discriminatory, abusive, or other content not suitable in public or for younger readers. Computer control is not something I personally have much of a use for with this radio, as for me the 817 is a portable radio not one to be used on a desk near the computer.

I have done what most FT-817 owners probably do, and turned the SSB mike level up to get a louder signal, at the cost of a bit of splatter. Especially when the bands are crowded, operating CW with a standard FT-817/FT-818 can be a trying experience. Some hash is still noticeable, but it is not strong enough to drown out any station who is strong enough to indicate he has a chance of hearing my 5W signals. I already went from RG-58 coax to RG-174 and also scaled-down the diameter of the antenna wire, but this is a different story.

This means a lot of button pressing and knob twiddling just to do something like turn the noise blanker on or off, change the output power or toggle the meter between SWR and power out. Instead of using a 4S-pack for a FT-857D or similiar "big" TRX, I would rather go with a LiFePo4 (please check above) then.

This is still disappointing, though, as one of the main uses of a small, lightweight PSU would be to power the radio in /A locations (hotel rooms, etc) when the chances are you will be using an indoor antenna. In normal use, when connected to a supply, the internal batteries are trickle charged with a current of 25mA.The trademark names and trademarks cited on our web pages serve exclusively serve to provide information about our products. I have read elsewhere that zippy packs often have dud cells so wonder what a good choice might be here in the UK.

Used the charger twice with no problems, and then on the third charge, after about 3 minutes the charger sparked and tripped the MCB in the consumer unit. The power supply is also twice as high and about 4 times as heavy as the FT-817, making it not something you really want to carry around on trips. Of course you can use a step-up/step-down converter, which has a way higher efficiency factor but might causes noise on the HF-bands.If you’re going to build a pack yourself, it’s relatively simple to do so, using the variety of methods found on my channel.
