I got 25 or so removal/installs out of the KX2 battery before one of the power leads broke off where it entered the battery pack. I figured it was a manufacturing defect where the wire fatigued without support of the insulation.
I replaced it with a 12v/5v 6 Ah lithium pack for about half of the cost of the internal pack. It gives me 4-6 hours of use at 10 watts. Not as convenient as the internal pack but it works for how I use my KX2. 73, Brian, K0DTJ "Unless handled with a heavy hand, the bottom of the KX2 will withstand many, many removals and installs." > ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
