This is the original rechargeable lithium-polymer battery for the ACR SR203 VHF radio. Intended for daily use, allowing the primary emergency battery to remain untouched behind the protective tab.
Rechargeable battery for daily use of your VHF radio This is the original ACR rechargeable lithium-polymer battery for the SR203 VHF radio. This rechargeable lithium-polymer battery is the option for daily use of the SR203. It allows you to use the radio for routine onboard communications while the primary emergency battery remains unused behind the protective tab. Charge it exclusively using the corresponding ACR charger.
A VHF radio that is part of your mandatory safety equipment is also checked for its battery expiration date during inspections. If that date has passed, the device is no longer compliant, regardless of how well it otherwise functions. Therefore, include checking the date in your annual safety equipment review.

Original ACR part: the battery designed for the SR203
