The custom battery pack for the KX2 (KXBT2) is one of these. Our pack includes the protection module inside the shrink-wrap. We allowed for this in dimensioning the radio. We extensively tested 20 prototypes of the battery and charger, and were very thorough in ensuring they were safe to use. That said, we also provide a comprehensive list of guidelines for battery pack charging, storage and use, in the documentation that comes with the pack. 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
