KNB-17A 2100mAh Ni-MH Battery Compatible for TK-190 TK-280 TK-290 TK-380 TK-390 TK-480 TK-481 TK-5400 Radio KNB-16 KNB-17 KNB-21N KNB-22N

The battery charged right up in my drop in charger for my TK-481 and everything seems to be working fine. The battery is a bit thicker and does weigh more than the stock Kenwood battery. More bothersome is that the form fit is extremely tight on my radio. I had a bit of difficulting putting the battery on and a lot of trouble getting it off. I'm sure it will work fine and for the price point, I would recommend it with the understanding that it is a VERY tight fit. Pic included showing the stock battery (slimmer) vs this battery.

This 2100mah NiMH pack replaced a 1700mah NiCad pack that was dead for a Kenwood TK380 HT. The HT works great, and the battery lasts all day. The battery fits tighter to the frame than the old battery, but latches/unlatches fine. It also fits the stick Kenwood charger with no issues at all. If you’re resurrecting these old radios for commercial/GMRS use, these are the batteries you need.

So far so good for my Kenwood tk390 long last battery been talking a lot on the radio & it has been a little over 9hrs.

Using in my TK390. Works very well, holds a de ent charge and also has a good shelf life in-between. Same quality as the OEM Kenwood. A good choice for discontinued radios.

Works just as intended. Holds charge for a long time. Price is right.

Ordered this for my husband's scanner/radio and it has not skipped a beat. Holds a charge all day long.

The battery works well and was worth the money I paid

Battery worked as expected, hope they last several years.
