I believe you mean "Bioenno"... I can report that I'm very pleased with
their BP-120 10AH power pack ($190) which I use together with its companion solar panel ($99). So far so good, runs my K2 nicely, and I've
even used the built-in AC inverter to charge/run a laptop. When running
the inverter was a bit noisy on HF but winding a few turns of the laptop's power brick AC cord through a type 31 2.4 inch ferrite core took care of that. A small exhaust fan runs when the inverter is active but it's quiet. All in all a neatly packaged power pack, even the solar charge controller is built in. The 12 VDC output is rated at 5A which is fine for the K2/10.

There's another company called Bionelle selling 20Ah and 30 Ah batteries at comparable prices. They come with PowerPole to run the radio, and a concentric jack for the charger. They're in Southern California. I don't know anything quality of these products, but both companies offer quite intelligent support by telephone and/or email.
