I do not have a KX3 myself so can only refer to the following thread:
in the thread "Re: [Elecraft] Kx3 (Battery thread)"

The Eneloop batteries have been in my KX3 since it was built and I've
NEVER had
them self-discharge enough to cause the KX3 to shut down and I use it
often. I
don't usually charge them until the pack's indicated voltage gets down to
around 9.3 volts under load and then an 8 hour charge puts things back
to where
it was.
You DO have to have at least 13 volts of external power to be able to
charge
them with the KXBC3. Any less and they may not charge properly. Even a
big 12
volt external battery pack simply won't provide proper operation of the
charger.

1. As for internal batteries, seems that a good deal is the Sanyo Eneloop
XX 2500mAh LSDs. I can get 8 of these on Amazon for $30.24 shipped. Are
these adequate? Also, the internal battery charger on the KX3 will charge
these just fine (probably overnight) so I don't need a separate charger,
correct?
