Features of ICOM M25 EVO
The IC-M25 EVO is an upgraded model of the extremely popular IC-M25 floating VHF marine handheld transceiver. The IC-M25 EVO is designed with an improved grip texture for easier handling, and larger buttons for easier operation. Moreover, it has adopted a new power-saving Eco Mode which will allow approximately about 14 hours of operation, which is about a 30% improvement. Furthermore, a USB Type-C™ charging port is standard. The IC-M25 EVO still retains its compact and lightweight body, and industry leading Float'n Flash™ and submersible design.
