It can run from an external supply. Per the manual it takes 8-15v.

Is KX2 somehow restricted to the KXBT2, 11V (3 cell?) battery pack?   I cant 
find DC input voltage range listed in the specifications on the Elecraft 
website.

  Hi, Phil --

Well, you could buy the charger -- and operate off
an external supply (like some battery, even!)
while you wait for it ;-)

So,I bought a KX2, a battery and an ATU... All

Well, no, I have battery chargers in fact a
bunch all designed to charge a wide variety of
LION or LIPO or nicads lead acid or Nickle
metal  etc. But I cant charge the Elecraft Battery.
It seems that to charge the battery one needs
the Elecraft Battery charger. I did not buy the
Elecraft Charger... Bonehead MISTAKE.

So the question is.... How to charge that battery?
Must I strip out all of the protection to charge
it or is there a simple way around?

Thank You
