Charging Cradle
Heavy-Duty Vehicular and Desktop Mounting Solution for SAT100
The Icom BC247 is a specialized charging cradle designed for both in-vehicle and in-building deployments of the IC-SAT100 Satellite PTT transceiver. This ruggedized cradle provides more than just a power source; it acts as a secure docking station that ensures your satellite radio remains charged and accessible in the most remote environments. The Icom BC247 features a precision-engineered "easy-release" mechanism, allowing operators to drop the radio in for a secure fit and retrieve it instantly when moving from a vehicle to the field.
Safety and security are core components of the Icom BC247 design. For vehicular installations, the cradle includes a specialized robbery alarm function that can be integrated into the vehicle's horn system, alerting the user or bystanders if the radio is tampered with or removed without authorization. With its dual-voltage compatibility ($13.8$ V DC and $27.6$ V DC), it is equally at home in standard passenger vehicles, heavy-duty trucks, or fixed-station command centers using a DC power supply.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual-Environment Versatility: Optimized for high-vibration vehicular mounting or stable desktop use in base station setups.
- Rapid Drop-In Charging: Features an "easy to set and take out" design, allowing for seamless transitions between mobile and handheld operation.
- Integrated Robbery Alarm: Enhanced security feature that can trigger an external horn or alarm system if the radio is improperly removed.
- Wide Voltage Range: Supports both 12V and 24V DC systems, making it compatible with a wide variety of automotive and maritime electrical architectures.
- Intelligent Charging Control: Features sophisticated preparation and regular charge timers to maximize the lifespan of the SAT100’s battery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this include a cigarette lighter adapter? The BC247 typically comes with a DC power cable designed for hardwiring into a vehicle's electrical system or a power supply. For cigarette lighter functionality, a compatible adapter (like the CP-23L) may be required.
How does the robbery alarm work? The cradle features a dedicated connection lead that, when properly wired to the vehicle’s horn or an external alarm, triggers a signal if the radio is removed from the cradle while the system is armed.
Can I charge the radio with a case on it? The BC247 is precision-molded to fit the SAT100 chassis. Using thick protective cases or skins may interfere with the charging contacts and the secure locking mechanism.
