usbroway battery charger for Yaesu Vertex Horizon radios

Compatible Battery Charger

The usbroway charger powers Ni-MH and Ni-CD packs used in Yaesu Vertex Standard Horizon radios. It accepts AC 100-240V at 50-60Hz and delivers DC 8.4V at 450mA. Supported battery models include FNB-V57, FNB-V57H, FNB-64, FNB-64H, FNB-V64, FNB-V83, FNB-83, FNB-83H and FNB-V94. The unit suits operators who need a direct replacement for original VAC-10G, VAC-20G or VAC-400 chargers.

Build Integration

The charger plugs into any standard mains outlet worldwide without a separate adapter. Its output matches the voltage and current profile required by the listed packs, so no external regulation is needed. Radios such as the HX270S, HX370S, FT-60 series, VX-150 series and VXA aviation models can be charged through their compatible batteries. Builders who need simultaneous multi-bay charging or a vehicle DC input will not find those features here.

Sustained Operation

Continuous mains supply lets the charger maintain its 450mA output for the full charge cycle of each supported pack. The 500mA input draw stays steady across the 100-240V range, so thermal load on the internal components remains consistent. Users who require rapid top-up rates above 450mA or a charger that operates from a 12V vehicle supply without an inverter should look elsewhere.
