Charger for Icom Radio Batteries
The Avantalk BC-213 is a desktop rapid charger designed for Icom lithium-ion packs including the BP-280, BP-280LI, BP-279 and BP-278. It ships with a matching AC adapter that accepts 100-240V input and delivers 12V DC at 1.0A. The unit suits operators who need a single dock for multiple compatible radios.
Suits Fleets Using Listed Icom Models
Teams running IC-F1000, IC-F2000, IC-A16, IC-T10, IC-V88, IC-U88 or IC-F29SDR handsets can charge their standard packs without swapping cables. Buyers whose radios or batteries fall outside the listed part numbers should look at something else, as the dock will not make proper contact or may risk damage.
Simple Desktop Setup With One Caution
Place the charger on a dry indoor surface, connect the supplied adapter and seat the battery or radio until the indicator lights. New or long-stored packs may show a steady green light before reaching full capacity; the manufacturer advises an overnight charge in that case. No software or configuration is required.

Questions about this item
Does the BC-213 charger need any extra cable to plug into a UK wall socket?
The included AC adapter accepts 100-240V input so it works on UK mains voltage; only a standard UK plug adapter for the supplied lead is required.
Will this charger charge the BP-278 pack used in my older IC-V88 radio?
Yes, the BC-213 is listed as compatible with BP-278, BP-279, BP-280 and BP-280LI packs used in the IC-V88 and other models.
What does a steady green light mean after I dock the battery?
A steady green LED normally shows a full charge, but new or long-stored packs may show green early; charge overnight to confirm full capacity.
