Why Professionals Choose the Hytera Battery BP1503
The BP1503 is sized to cover a standard shift on one charge at a 5/5/90 duty cycle, so a single pack carries most users from clock-in to clock-out. The BP1503 holds 1500 mAh at 7.4 V nominal. It is a smart battery. The pack reports charge state and health to the radio and to Hytera smart chargers, which optimizes the charge curve and guards against overcharge and overheating. Hytera rates the pack for over 500 charge cycles. The operating range is -4°F to 140°F, so the pack works in cold storage and at hot outdoor posts. At 3.1 oz it adds little weight to a belt-worn radio across a full shift.
The BP1503 is a genuine, current Hytera battery for PD4 i-Series radios and serves as a direct replacement for the BL1504 model. Third-party cells can miss the smart-battery data link, which disables charge-health reporting and can void the radio warranty. For this i-Series, the original pack keeps the charge management the radio expects.

FAQ
What's the difference between the Hytera BP1503 and the BL1504, and why does the BP1503 replace it?
The BP1503 is a drop-in replacement for the discontinued BL1504. Both are 1500 mAh, 7.4 V (11.1 Wh) and fit the same radios, so the fit doesn't change. The difference is the pack itself. The BL1504 is a conventional Lithium-Ion cell, while the BP1503 is a lighter Lithium-Polymer smart battery (3.1 oz). The new model transmits charge and status data to the radio and the charger, and also provides protection against overcharging and overheating.
