Product Description & Core Advantages

✅ Faithful OEM Replacement for ICOM IC-F3 / IC-F4 / IC-T2 Series Radios
Direct replacement for ICOM OEM battery BP-196, supporting the classic 9.6V handheld generation: IC-F3, IC-F3S, IC-F3GT, IC-F3X, IC-F4, IC-F4S, IC-F4TR, aviation handheld IC-A4, amateur IC-T2A/IC-T2E/IC-T2H, plus the EF Johnson 587-7500-105 professional radio. Plug-and-play fit, no modification required.

✅ 1100mAh Ni-CD Cell Pack — Budget-Friendly and Cold-Weather Proven
Premium long-cycle Ni-CD cells deliver stable 9.6V output and rated 1100mAh capacity for typical 6-8 hour operation. Ni-CD chemistry is the most economical replacement path and the most tolerant in extreme cold and high-load duty: it handles high-rate discharge and fast charging with minimal stress, making it a dependable workhorse for harsh outdoor fleets. Works directly with the original Ni-CD charger — zero recharging infrastructure changes.

✅ Rugged Housing & Ultrasonic Welding Sealing
Robust ABS/PC composite housing with ultrasonic integrated welding sealing, golden plated brass low-resistance contacts, built-in short-circuit protection — anti-drop, dustproof and moisture resistant. The 13.53*5.78*2.20cm form factor faithfully follows the original BP-196 battery dimensions for a balanced, secure fit on classic ICOM chassis.

  • ⭐ OEM BP-196 Replacement — Faithfully matches original dimensions (13.53*5.78*2.20cm), drop-in fit for all listed IC-F3/F4, IC-A4 and IC-T2 series radios without chassis modification
  • ⭐ 1100mAh Capacity, 9.6V Stable Output — Economy-grade everyday operation on a single charge, works with the original Ni-CD charger, no charger upgrade needed
  • ⭐ Extreme Condition Champion — Ni-CD chemistry tolerates -20 degrees C cold and high-rate discharge better than other chemistries, ideal for winter outdoor operations and heavy transmit duty
  • ⭐ Legacy Fleet Life Extension — Keeps the proven 9.6V ICOM generation in service for years more, ideal for organizations still standard on IC-F3/F4/T2 hardware
  • ⭐ Industrial Craftsmanship & Warranty — Manufactured under strict aging test procedure, OEM private label and bulk customization available, 12-month full quality warranty

Safety Cautions

  • ⚠ Do not disassemble, puncture, crush or modify the battery housing — internal cell damage may cause electrolyte leakage, overheating or fire. Stop using the battery immediately if you notice unusual heat, leakage or deformation, and move it to a safe non-flammable area away from combustibles.

  • ⚠ Keep battery terminals away from metal objects such as coins, keys and jewelry to prevent accidental short-circuit. Do not expose the battery to high temperature above 60 degrees C, direct sunlight or open flame for extended periods.

  • ⚠ Only charge with a Ni-CD compatible charger using negative delta-V or timer cutoff logic. Do NOT use a Li-ion CC/CV charger on this Ni-CD battery — the termination logic is completely different and may cause overcharge, overheating or permanent damage.

  • ⚠ For long-term storage, keep the pack in a cool dry place and recharge every 3 months. This Ni-CD battery contains cadmium — a regulated hazardous substance. Do not dispose of it with household waste; return spent packs to an authorized battery recycling collection point in compliance with local and EU Battery Directive regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is ENC-BP196 fully compatible with OEM BP-196 and ICOM IC-F3 / IC-F4 / IC-T2 series radios?-
A: Yes. ENC-BP196 is a faithful OEM replacement for ICOM BP-196, with matching 13.53*5.78*2.20cm housing dimensions, plug-and-play fit for all listed models: IC-F3, IC-F3S, IC-F3GT, IC-F3X, IC-F4, IC-F4S, IC-F4TR, IC-A4, IC-T2A, IC-T2E, IC-T2H and the EF Johnson 587-7500-105 variant. No modification required. It is also fully interchangeable with the BP-196H high-capacity pack form factor.
Q2: How do I choose between ENC-BP196 (Ni-CD 1100mAh) and ENH-BP196 (Ni-MH 1800mAh) for the same radios?+
A: Both packs fit the same radio list with the identical 13.53*5.78*2.20cm housing. ENC-BP196 (this page) is the Ni-CD economy pack — lowest cost per pack, best extreme-cold and high-rate discharge tolerance, ideal for budget fleets and winter outdoor operations (6-8 hours runtime). ENH-BP196 is the Ni-MH high-capacity pack — 1800mAh for 9-11 hour shifts, cadmium-free, but with a slightly higher unit price. Both work with the same original Ni-MH/Ni-CD style charger. Rule of thumb: replace like-for-like to keep charging routines unchanged, or move up to ENH-BP196 when longer runtime per shift matters most.
Q3: Does this Ni-CD battery have a memory effect? How should I maintain it?+
A: Ni-CD chemistry can develop a memory effect if repeatedly recharged from partial discharge. Best practice: run the pack down to near-empty before a full recharge every few weeks, or use a charger with a discharge/refresh function to condition the cells. Avoid topping up after short partial use. Followed properly, the pack delivers its full rated 1100mAh and a long service life of 500+ charge cycles.
Q4: Will ENC-BP196 fit ICOM IC-V80 / IC-V8 / IC-F3161 radios or other BP-232 / BP-265 family packs?+
A: ENC-BP196 is designed ONLY for the listed ICOM radio models (replacement for OEM BP-196/BP-196H). Even within the ICOM brand, each radio generation has its own dedicated battery family: the IC-V80/G80/U80 and IC-F3002/3003 series uses BP-265 or BP-264 packs, the IC-F3161/F4161 and IC-F33GT/F3021 series uses BP-232 packs, the IC-V8/F11 generation uses BP-209N/210N/211N packs, while this BP-196 family covers the IC-F3/F4 and IC-T2 generation — voltage (9.6V), housing dimensions, contact arrangement and locking mechanism are NOT interchangeable across these families. Always check the model label on your radio or the OEM battery part number on your existing battery before ordering to ensure correct fit.
Q5: Do you support OEM custom labeling or bulk quantity orders?+
A: Yes, we accept OEM and ODM orders. Custom shell printing, private label, capacity variants and connector customization are all available for bulk quantity. Standard stock orders ship within 3-7 working days; OEM customized orders typically take 15-25 days lead time. Contact our sales team for exact quotation and MOQ.
