I was asked several times on private messages for this information. Note: I am not affiliated with the supplier in any way.
The discussion was for a custom replacement for the 2.9 Ampere-hour gel cell used in the Elecraft KBT2. The replacement suggested by me is a rechargeable 4.5 Ampere-hour LiFePO4 pack. It fits where the gel cell does, in the Elecraft custom internal bracket. It is almost exactly half the weight.
