Phil, Several of us on the list have bought these. John Harper, AE5X, loaned me his CBA II battery capacity tester and I've been running tests on the various batteries here. This battery provides about 5Ah of useful capacity, just about half it's rating. The up side is, it weighs 11.3 oz and will last a long time at the test current of 350mA. That's about what I figure average current will be on the KX3 with casual operating.
Interestingly, my 7Ah SLA measured out at 7.2Ah, my 1900mAh Eneloops (cheap blue ones from Costco, $14 for 10!) measured out at 1.9Ah. I'll publish the discharge curves in a week or two and post a link here. I'm trying to get ahold of my friends LiFePO battery to test. 73, Rob NV5E ---------------------------------------- > From: dpsa...@tx.rr.com > To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Date: Wed, 9 May 2012 10:52:06 -0500 > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KX3 LiNiCo 12v 3.6 Ah Battery Pack > > This looks like an interesting battery pack. > > www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170794794136&ssPageName=ADME:B:WNAFP:US:1123 > > Phil - AD5X > > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
