Description
Six-Unit Multi-Charger for Multi-Model Fleet Powering
Professional gang charger base engineered for centralized two-way radio fleet management.
The Icom BC214 Six-Unit Multi-Charger is a commercial-grade rapid charging station designed to simultaneously charge up to six compatible portable transceivers or standalone rechargeable battery packs. Running from a single AC outlet, this heavy-duty system delivers an efficient charging current to streamline battery management across large operational fleets.
This multi-unit desktop platform is built for emergency response teams, security departments, manufacturing plants, and logistics facilities that need an organized workspace free from cord clutter. Buyers must note that the BC214 base operates using specific sub-model variations configured with specialized drop-in cup inserts to accommodate distinct radio body designs and battery chemistries, making it vital to match your hardware to the correct option before purchase.
Depending on the specific variant chosen—ranging from the standard commercial base to specific aviation or satellite variants—the unit securely seats and charges different radio series. The station includes a dedicated high-capacity external AC power supply to ensure uniform power distribution across all six active bays, protecting internal components from sudden voltage drops.
This 6-unit charger includes the AC adapter (BC157S). If you are looking for the European version, please contact us for the BC157SE.
