Mine is in place for around 3 years. I keep the supply set at 14.1 volts with the proper jumper on the PWRgate.
73, Bill K9YEQ -----Original Message----- Yes, I've done exactly this, but with a different battery and PSU, for about 8 years. My battery is a PAIR of the biggest deep cycle units that Costco sells (for about $75 each). They last about four years. This setup got me through Field Day with a K3 QRP for 19 hours on the air, with plenty of battery left at the end (I pulled the charger before FD started). 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
