Steve... Thanks for the info and for your effort in getting this item up and running. Question: installing this battery in the K2 requires the Elecraft battery mounting hardware, yes? Charging the new battery uses the SLA battery charging circuit, yes? Thanks in advance.
Don't know about your first question, but LiFePO4's require a cell balancing charger. Charging a 4S1P LiFePO4 on the same two wires you discharge it with will generally really reduce the battery life.
