BCD436HP/BCD536HP: BCD436HP Rechargeable Battery
- Thread starter pares
- Start date
BCD436HP takes three batteries. Higher capacity batteries will work fine and give the radio a longer run time. Just make sure charge them outside of the radio with a charger made for them.
The BCD325P2 takes 2 batteries.
Whoever answered “yes” is wrong. 2800mah and 2300mah are simply storage capacities of the battery, NOT the voltage. They both supply 1.2-1.3 volts, the prescribed voltage for the BCD436HP. A 2800mah battery will simply last longer than a 2300mah battery before needing to be recharged.
How exactly am I wrong? I can't wait for the answer.
Cool! But no one mentioned that model...well, except you.
Then don’t wait.
Look again… it’s the title of the OP’s post. And you are a “Super moderator? Come on man, you’re better than that!
I only mentioned this model, since the OP said two batteries.
Yes, the 2300 and 2800.
I've owned a wide variety of rechargeable batteries.
I bought some high Mah batteries, but the shelf life was horrible. I bought these at Batteries Plus, my first mistake. They discharged in less than 48 hours.
These batteries can hold a charge for a long time.

For some time now when they'll work in the device I've used either Eneloop's or Eneloop pro's. I had great luck with both when I had my BCD 536. The fellow I sold it to is still using the same batteries I had for years with an external charger. I never charged the batteries in the scanner, only used an external.
I think if you char them once then that's it.
Below is how the post showed to me;
“BCD436HP Recharable Battery
Hello, Is it possible to use 2800mAh rechargeable batteries rather than the 2300mAh batteries the scanner came with? Will i damage the scanner?Both batteries are 1.2 volts
Thank you
Paul”
A BCD436HP takes three AA batteries, but he does state both batteries are 1.2 volts.
Hope this helps. In any case, it’s all I care to contribute as all I’ve stated can not be disputed.
