Motorola Talkabout Battery

Motorola Talkabout Batteries vary widely in their amps but one thing is for sure, they all pack a punch for the size and weight.  One of the more popular batteries commonly in use is the KEBT-071-D Battery.  This battery is used in over 60 different Talkabout Radios.  We have found that the Voltages all remain the same 3.6 volt but the amperage ranges from 600 mAh to a whopping 1500mAh.  Amperage is pretty important to those who use their radios on a regular basis such as department stores, stadiums and places that need regular communication between workers.  The Motorola Original KEBT-071-D comes with the lowest amperage where the Command Tac KEBT-071-D comes with the highest amperage topping out at 1500 mAh.  The prices vary as widely as the amperage.  We found places selling these as low as 3.99 to as high as 17.99.  In testing both the Motorola Talkabout Battery and the Command Tac KEBT-071-D battery to see what the actual difference was in overall performance.  The Command Tac Battery run time was over 3 times longer than the Motorola Original with a much lower price of only $7.99.  The best value is the higher milliampere battery with the best price.  We used the people over at PoliceStation.com to provide us with some price comparisons on the KEBT-071-D battery.
