Hi Phil, I have been using a China switcher now for about 7 months. It is a 13.1 VDC at 29 Amps unit in a very small package for about $48 US. No RFI, has a built in fan, plugs into 120 VAC and if you didn't look you would not know it was there. Just got back from a 10 day fishing trip and used it every day. Look up LightObject.com. They are in Elk Grove, CA and have a warehouse. Tell them I sent you, no rewards or connections to me, just good service and they speak English, hi. Mel K6KBE

A rechargeable Li-ion nano-phosphate battery pack available from Buddipole. The four cell variety is a very nice size for powering the small equipment like the KX1 or KX3. The recharger unit is separate of course and I use the Cellpro 10s for recharging the battery. I admit though that this is not the cheapest solution but cheap is not usually my main objective. The Li-ion battery is very RF quiet! phil - K7PEH On Jun 19, 2012, at 7:13 AM, Phil & Debbie Salas wrote: > I've looked at several small 2-5 amp switchers for possible use with my KX3 > (whenever it arrives).
