Two-Way Radio batteries have a lot of technical terms that can leave you confused. This means that when you use a radio, 5% of the time is spent transmitting, 5% of the time is spent receiving, and 90% on standby. So when a battery says it'll last 20 hours per charge, this is tested on radios based on the 5-5-90% cycle.
