Took my chances and did receive authentic Yaesu CD-41, in original unopened factory box. Excellent price for this charger, which works with my new Yaesu FT-2DR wall plug. Will also charge in the car when using the Yaesu EB-13 DC power plug. Purchased same rapid charger 2 weeks ago, with the FT-2DR from a Nationwide Ham Radio Store for $39.00. You would have thought after buying the new spendy radio that they would have gave me a break. Although free shipping with radio, its all in the price. So I now have one for home while using the radio wall plug. And a 2nd rapid charger for mobile use. The ED-13 12V will charge the radio and allow transmit I believe. But having the fast charger cradle in the vehicle could come in handy when travelling. Will purchase a 2nd wall supply for travelling as well.

Does the job in 5 hours or so, you can just charge the battery on its own without the radio attached

Tut was es soll - läd den Akku von meinem FT5D. Das beim Funkgerät mitgelieferte Steckernetzteil versieht auch an der Ladestation seinen Dienst!

Precisione e velocità.

This is the same Yeasu rapid charger sold at other retail outlets for twice the price. It works as advertised.
