BaoFeng UV-5R Desk Stand

thingiverse

This stand is specifically designed for use with both the BaoFeng UV-5R and BF-F8HP radios, featuring two distinct models: one with a standard battery capacity and another upgraded version that boasts an extended 2100mAh battery life. The design also allows for seamless integration of the belt clip from either radio model, as the BF-F8HP's clip is slightly larger than its counterpart on the UV-5R. The dimensions of the pockets are carefully measured to accommodate both models, with the standard battery version measuring 30mm in depth, 50mm in width, and 30mm in height. In contrast, the extended battery model has a slightly deeper pocket at 35mm in depth, while maintaining the same width and height as its counterpart. It's worth noting that this stand is not compatible with the BL-5L 3,800mAh battery or large antennas like the ABBREE, due to the stand's angled design. The added weight of these modifications can cause the radio and stand to tip over backwards. However, users may consider adhering the stand to a flat surface using 3M Command Strips or other adhesive methods to mitigate this issue.
