A Retevis/Ailunce HS4 radio came across my desk today. Time to put it through the ringer before I send it back out. Does it do the thing? Does it pass my tests?

Can a battery this small REALLY deliver 100Ah? In this video I test the Redodo Ultra Mini 12.8V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery with a full charge → full discharge capacity test to see if it actually delivers its rated performance. I also show the Bluetooth monitoring feature and compare the size to a traditional Group 31 battery so you can see just how compact this new Group 22NF form factor really is.

These ultra-compact lithium batteries could be interesting for RV electrical systems, solar setups, portable power, and ham radio stations where space matters. Full test results in the video.
