Looking for an "AA" standard battery holder (not a rechargeable pak) for my FT-60R, if one is available. Did an online? search and did not find one. Thought I would ask here on the list.

Your attention is appreciated.

I show a YAESU FBA-25 battery case on the HRO site, for $18.95, and available at all HRO stores. It's suitable for the FT-60R, plus some other Yaesu ratios

To all that replied to my query, Thank you. I guess I just missed the online Yaesu FBA-25 info.

I further noticed there are several much cheaper copies available online by that model number. I don't mind the HRO price, in fact I'll probably go with them, but I'm curious: Has anyone bought the cheaper models and how about their experience with them? Maybe others would like to know if they worked OK and held up.

I've never purchased the cheaper models, but it's been my experience that cheap is usually worth what you pay for it. Generally, I've found cheaper things of poor workmanship that don't last as long as the better made items.
