Elecraft's design philosophy dictates that their radio be capable of
portable/field operation, so that's how they design their radios.
They're lightweight, efficient, and operate off 12 volts. Lots of other
manufacturers love giant, heavy rigs. Elecraft doesn't.

I agree completely with all of that, but with the discontinuance of
the K3s it seems that Elecraft doesn't really consider the K4 to be
strictly a base station rig. Their continued insistence upon
everything being 12 volt capable is a bit of a puzzlement for me.
