- Baofeng BF-888S is a cheap Chinese handheld UHF transceiver.
It has 16 programmable channels in UHF band. Each channel can be programmed (you need to buy USB cable) to various frequency for simplex or trough repeater use.
BF-888S is very convenient for camping, fishing, hiking and everyday use.
The range depends of many factors. Best range you can reach in the open space, without hills and buildings between transceivers.
Depends what frequency you have it on, but I’ve had a true 2 watts out of them, and inside mine, that’s what it says they are
Two watts are what they're rated at. The resellers and vloggers commonly misreport this, and power meters are notoriously inaccurate. Hang an extension coax between them, and I'm eve more suspicious. I'm awarding two watts to mine ;-)
so whats the range outside on flat land and in city?
Mine BF-888S showed 2.8W (High)/0.2W (Low) at 434 and 446 MHz.
Line 888 and 777 gives medium 2,5W at high. Yours must be at low mode.
In low mode mine (both of them) gives about 0.5W. But no matter, still good weekend radio. Also I use the local repeater, so, the power isn't very important.

Iss this legel in India....do we need any lisence for using this....??
Sorry, I have no idea... Maybe it will be license free, if you set PMR frequencies and 500mW RF power:
Personal Mobile Radio (PMR) devices are permitted to work without any license in the frequency band 446.0-446.2 MHz with a maximum transmit power of 500 mW e.r.p. Such PMR devices mean hand-held portable radio with no base station or repeater use and operates in peer-to-peer mode.
I couldn't read the scale. What is it?
There are subtitles. The whole scale is 5W and bf-888 power is approx. 1.2W
@@MyWeekendChannel Now I feel better about my 888 - based simplex repeater. (About a mile.) Thank you.
What is difference low and high power settings?
Mine gives approximately 0,5W low and 1,2W high
Mine BF-888S showed 2.8W (High)/0.2W (Low) at 434 and 446 MHz.
BETTER THEN NOTHING
Yes, of course! Still best cheap radio, I love mine. Just decided to check the RF power, because I didn't found real information.
i connect mine to a 1000w amplifier
Schwachsinn! 😕Wie wärs erstmal in der Software des Baofengs 888s die
hf Leistung in der Antenne auf High stellen und dann zusammen mit Alinco testen!?
RF Power of BF-888 was set to High by USB cable and software! I can upload video with the difference between low and high power of bf888
Yes, the 888, 777 gives medium 2,5 W out put. In low gives about 1.
