00:10I scroll through a hundred cheap listings so you don't have to.

00:18setups. First up, this BaoFoam UV-S9 and UV-5 or Plus USB Charger Cable, about 546.
00:26It plugs straight into the radio's charging jack and takes any USB wall plug or power bank,
00:31so you stop hunting down that proprietary wall wart.

00:40of people.
00:41Now the cheapest option on the list at 471, and for the money it's hard to argue with.

01:04A USB power charging cable made for the UV-5R Pro and UV-S9 with the 3,800 mAh batteries,
01:11plus the UV-10R, and it does a proper fast charge instead of that slow trickle you get from a

01:32It's universal too, fits the UV-5R, UV-82 and BF-888S, and it works with TYT and Retivus
01:39radios as well. 5-34, and people are rating it near perfect.
