[Yaesu] One More on the Yaesu VX2 battery

[kd5czm1@iwon.com]

Carlos and others may have found Xgadgets on eBay selling Fuji battery packs for the VX2. See item #3811242430 in eBay. I got my spare pack for $8.24 ($2.99 + shipping). Yup, the shipping is more than the battery but then I didn't pay triple for a replacement from the ham radio vendors.

If Xgadgets ever finds out why this item is so popular, he will *UP* the price to kingdom come.

Well, got my NP-60 batteries from eBay today and charged them on my VX-2R
and so far so good. I got two, one 800mAh, the other 1000mAH both Li-ion
type. I have a third 1000mAh on the way. Here's the trick, the first one I
was in a rush to get it and paid the Buy Now price of $12.99+ship. The
other two I waited for the auction end and got one for $2.99+ship and the
other for $4.00+ship. So there are some good bargains to be had until the
word gets out--hurry! Make sure you get them from someone who's got
reasonable shipping charges. Some of them guys will rip you off on shipping
if you let them. I'll repost in a few days after I use the batteries thru a
couple of charging cycles.

73,
