I've used a 1.4 watt panel with a ten NiMH AA cell pack with the K1 with great success. On the other hand, with the KX1 on a backpack trip of a week or more where weight is critcal, I run it on a set of AA lithium throwaways, and carry a spare set. Both sets together weigh the same as a single set of NiMH, and will run the rig for several weeks- in fact I've never run the first set down on a trip. And I don't need to carry a solar panel.
For a non-wilderness situation, car camping or the like, I use the above NiMH pack and solar panel to save the expense of the lithium cells. 72, Bruce N7CEE _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
