I use a Mercury 27 W foldable from Instapark.com with a 9.9 AH Life04 and runs the KX3 all day and most of the night plus it has a USB port to charge the laptop. Mel, K6KBE

I am using 60W foldable solar panel, Genasun MPPT controller https://genasun.com/products-store/mppt-solar-charge-controllers/ (they are RF quiet) and 5500 AH LiFePo4 battery with built it limiting circuitry which some outlets are selling as a substitute for lead acid motorcycle batteries. All works just great with KX3. When using K3 I add one more solar panel and 25 AH LiFePo4 battery. This proved to be enough to keep going the whole day. 73, Igor UA9CDC 06.02.2017 23:37, Harry Yingst via Elecraft пишет: > My son has my KX3 and I'm building a K2.
