Having had an external LiPoly R/C battery burst into flames while plugged into my KX1, I don't think I'd ever put Lithium <anything> inside my radio.  I know there are a bunch of lithium chemistries, some less volatile than others, but watching the little package "sparken und fizzen" on our gravel driveway convinced me I'd done the right thing with keeping it external.  YMMV.

If you are concerned about removing the bottom of the KX2, you can always use the Lithium battery externally, just plug it into the power jack - no internal battery required.

The KX3 internal batteries can be charged from the power jack if you have the KXBC3 option installed.
