Re: Battery Latch Too Tight?

Well, I did pick up a second pack for this radio, but honestly, the first one lasts so long I may not use it often. ?

The battery latch is intentionally tight. There is a water seal around the perimeter of the battery that's designed to keep moisture and dust out of the radio. Without the tight latch, there would not be enough compression of the seal. It's a holdover from the basic LMR design of the radio where the radios would be recharged frequently on a desk charger and the battery would rarely need to be removed. It is not the most convenient design for users who have the AA pack or swap batteries frequently.
