    You can watch TidRadio's video - the video that THIS video is modeled after, here: ruclips.net/video/YGfsF5x4WyM/видео.htmlsi=X-0ajZs55glux2uS
    Let them know if you think I should make all of their future videos.

    If you have CRS this might help. I purchased a preset timer that plugs into an electrical outlet and then whatever you’re charging plugs into the timer. Set the timer for the amount of charging time and then it shuts off after preset time so your battery will not be damaged from overcharging if you decide to leave your battery in the cradle or forget to remove it like me.

    So if said battery is not permitted to develop a memory, will said battery remember what is its intended purpose?

    • @Mysdia
      @Mysdia 2 дня назад

      The battery will forget and blindly follow orders; not having to know its actual purpose. But if you allow the battery to develop a memory it may become intelligent and decide to hog all the power for itself.

    I got a UV-9R Pro. The manual said the batteries would be completely uncharged, and need something like a 5 hour charge for the first few times. The thing is both batteries had an almost full charge. They only took about 45 min for the light to turn green and the battery meter to show full bars. I don't like the idea of over charging a full battery for 5 hours. I'm new to this so I hope I don't do something dumb. I'll just use it until it needs a charge then charge it back up to green. Hopefully I don't give it a bad memory.

    Well theirs is shorter, so they get a point.
    I like that they included a shot of a Boofwang radio in their video, so I give them another point.
    But your video has a Roger beep and theirs doesn't, so I'm taking away three points from them.

    If Li-Ion:
    Ideally, full charge before you’ll need it, otherwise 50-80% charge for storage.
    Do not let fully discharge. Full discharge DOES kill Li-On batteries.
    A Li-ion battery will discharge itself slowly even when not used (there’s a chip attached to it, plus natural leakage).
    Li-ion batteries last 4-5 years even unused: that sucks.
    I prefer Ni-Mh except that they are heavier ( or lower wh-age)

    Uh.. dear king, it's two 35 question tests a morse code test and a 50 question test. But none of the questions are about batteries.
    And those tests are too simple to claim passing them verifies expertise in anything.
    P.S. Lithium Ion batteries should never be run down completely. That will shave cycles off their lifetime. Are also not to be charged 100% each time, not even the first time, and developing a memory is mostly only a concern for NiCD and to a much smaller extent NiMH.

      Ummm, there has not been a morse code test requirement for a very long time. I had a radio shack ham test book back in the 70's announcing the new No Code ham licenses. Where do these sad hams get their info from? They act like they know everything but in reality they don't seem to know much at all.
