Is there any possibility that the KXBC3 will be upgraded to work with
LiFePO4 AA cells.
If I'm not mistaken the LiFePO4 cells are 3.2V so you could cut the
number of cells in half and free up some space in the radio for other
"stuff" also increasing available stand alone battery voltage to 12.8V
give or take.
LiFePO4 cells aren't bleeding edge battery tech and are much safer than
Li polymer. They are in everything. A 50% increase in energy density 120
wh/kg vs 80 wh/kg for NiMH is hard to ignore.
Thoughts?
