The Yaesu FT-5D is an expensive HRT. It comes with many nice features like APRS and C4FM.

You can charge it with the Rapid Desk Charger* or with the power adapter and Cable**. There is no other charging option.Β

I have found a USB-C to DC 12 V Adapter that works great for me. So I can charge the FT-5D with a PD USB Powerbank or car adapter.

There is another option from W0AEZ. A big 5 Ah battery for the FT-5D. It extends the running time by three times, but you need a packing mule πŸ˜‰

Here are the links to this useful stuff:

* What the heck is meaning of fast, Yaesu?
** Slower than the Rapid Desk Charger
