Battery for XTS

CBP_LB · Post by **CBP_LB** » Fri Dec 23, 2005 10:08 am

I'm getting sick and tired of talking on my XTS3000 then after letting the PTT go, i hear the low battery alert, but its a completly charged battery but if i put pressure on the battery it wont have the low battery alert.

i'm going to try a new battery and hopefully that will solve the problem, i'm not a toltal radio geek, but i need to know what type of battery i should get. can anyone help?

I am selling several NOS RNN4007 NiMH batteries for the XTS series. These are the high capacity intrinsically safe ones. $25 each plus shipping.

They are new 0306 date code. If you have to push the battery on hard your contact may be dirty or bad. My motorola shop told me its a bad design on the contacts for the radio and they replace alot of them.

i just put the battery zone batt. on the radio and it was looser then the other batt. but was not making the low batt. alert when i unkey.

but i'm going to send that back to battery zone and see if it is still under warrenty...

but i still want to buy a NEW Motorola Battery and just use thos two as spares, and throw away that Motorola RNN4006AR
