Overview
The Mag One BPR45 by Motorola is a tough, affordable analog business radio built for construction sites, warehouses, campuses and other busy workplaces. It covers broad areas with clear range, gets loud enough to hear over machinery, and its battery lasts up to 16 hours, more than a full shift. It charges from USB-C, so a standard USB charger works in a pinch.

Good to know
Is the BPR45 digital?
No, it is analog only. That keeps it simple and affordable, and it works with other analog business radios on the same channels. If you want digital, see the BPR50dx.
Will it work with the radios I already have?
If your current radios are analog on VHF or UHF business channels, we can usually program the BPR45 to talk with them. Tell us what you have and we will confirm.
How do I charge it?
Use the desktop charger, or plug a USB-C cable into the radio with a standard USB charger. The same USB-C port is used for programming.
How long does the battery last?
Up to 16 hours on a typical workday, which covers a full shift with room to spare.
Is it waterproof?
It is IP55 rated, which means protected from dust and water jets like heavy rain. It is not made to be submerged.
Do I need a license?
Business radios like the BPR45 use FCC-licensed frequencies. We can program the radios for the license you already have, or talk you through getting one.
