Currently when I'm operating my KX3 portable, I have the advantages of operating from a house. I use mains power and a splitter to power both the KX3 and the PX3. It's kind of ironic that I operate pure solar at home and mains power on the road. I do find the idea of slipping a battery into the PX3 really attractive for backpacking, moving to a minimum number of things to forget.

Actually that is one of the reasons I have held off buying one for a while.  I am one of the guys whose KX3 became their home station.  When I am portable, simple is better, so for me, a KX2 may be fine as it is.  I was simply fascinated by Ed's PX3 with an internal battery which simplifies portable setup, making portable PX3 more feasible.
