Will the Becker 4201 run off 12v battery? Seems like it needs 14v


It will run from a 12V battery. Have used lead-acid 12 V 9 ah in the past and now use K2 LiFePo4 battery due to it's higher capacity.


Great, Thanks Dave!


Probably the only 57mm cutout radio that won't would be older versions of the Microair, featuring distorted transmissions when a 12v SLA is slightly low.
The Becker AR4201 has a secret weapon: The newer AR6201 is a direct replacement, plug and play.
