Kenwood HT replacement batteries ? Anyone know of a good brand / source for quality replacements? I have several older LMR Kenwood HTs, for which original Kenwood batteries are no longer available. One is a TK-370G. I want good quality, but my biggest concern is safety with Lithium ion batteries. In terms of mitigating any potential fire risk, due to cheap and or unprotected cells. Another question is : is it even OK to use Lithium ion batteries in an older HT , which when the HT was originally manufactured, Lithium ion chemistry was not yet available? I realize if I go with a Lithium ion battery that I would need a new charger, compatible with the Lithium ion chemistry. I see plenty of offerings on Ebay & Amazon, but can't tell about the quality of cells used. Some claim to be made of quality Japanese cells, which would be good. But who knows if what is advertised is so?
Thanks WRMS528 Mike
