If any US customer who purchased these HASN'T received them, please contact me. They have all been sent out and should have arrived either on Saturday or today. Thanks for the orders, guys! I sold nearly 100, and have about 40 left. Let me know ASAP if you want any more. - jgc John Clifford KD7KGX Elecraft K2 #1678 /KSB2/KIO2/KBT2/KAT2/KNB2/KAF2/KPA100 Ten-Tec Omni VI/Opt1, Centaur, 238B Alinco DR-605TQ, DJ-V5 Icom T90A IRLP #3978 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

What kind of connectors do they use...I got mine and don't recognize the type...or might it be better to replace them with another type?

RE: [Elecraft] 12v 0.8Ah gel cells...
The connector is referred to as a 'Mate-N-Lok'. I believe it is the same connector that Elecraft uses to plug in the 12v gel cell into the K2's motherboard. Some people buy a female (receptacle) Mate-N-Lok (from Mouser, etc., use the name as a search term on Mouser's website) and make an adapter to Anderson Powerpoles, a barrel connector, etc., depending on their application. Others cut the connector off the battery and put their own connector on it. It's up to you. I know that one of these cells will fit inside a K1. Has anyone tried to see if it will fit inside a KX1? I also use 'em with my HTs since they are a LOT cheaper than AA NiMH cells and easier to recharge in the field (just plug them into a 12v auto cigarette lighter receptacle -- they can't be overcharged on 13.8 VDC). Two of them fit inside a cheap digital camera case, and it's easy to have a spare pair charging while I use a pair. Like I said, I've got about 40 left so if anyone wants some let me know ASAP. - jgc John Clifford KD7KGX Elecraft K2 #1678 /KSB2/KIO2/KBT2/KAT2/KNB2/KAF2/KPA100 Ten-Tec Omni VI/Opt1, Centaur, 238B Alinco DR-605TQ, DJ-V5 Icom T90A IRLP #3978 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
