Clay, there are 9v lithium batteries that will provide much longer life. 73, Bill K9YEQ

An XG3, fitted with a brand new 9 vdc battery, set to play a CW macro on repeat, set to -73dBm, and with AUTO-OFF set to "0" (disable), will run continuously for approximately 4 hours, 38 minutes before the battery voltage drops too low to continue. Looks like I will be creating a 5x 2.1mm x 5.5mm RA connectors to PS connector to power the CW simulator for hamfest. <smile> 73, -- ______________________ Clay Autery, KY5G (318) 518-1389 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
