BATTERY AND CHARGER
FEATURES
BATTERY FEATURES
The CLP Series radio provides Lithium-Ion
batteries that come in different capacities that will
define the battery life.
About the Li-Ion Battery
Motorola batteries are designed specifically to be
used with a Motorola charger and vice versa.
Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to
battery damage and void the battery warranty. The
battery should be at about 77 °F (25 °C) (room
temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold
battery (below 50 ° F [10 °C]) may result in
leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of
the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95 °F
[35 °C]) results in reduced discharge capacity,
