Thank you.
Gigaparts is local to me and I see they have the Bioennos in stock!!

Yes. This ham-friendly company sells a wide range of LiFePO4 batteries.
Charge before you leave home (all Li batteries require a charger
designed for their specific chemistry, voltage, and capacity), connect
to your KX2/3
Go with LiFePO4 cells. Four cells will keep the voltage between 12 and 14.4
V from 10% to 100% state of charge and most of the time the voltage is
between 13 and 13.5 V. I use small ones (3 AH )for backpack portable
operation, 20 AH for fixed portable and my RV has 400 Ah to run the rig
forever!
I have looked at the power issue (even though I'm not yet a KX3 owner) and with
NiMH cells at 1.2 V, the 8 cell internal battery holder would only be 9.6 V.
I'm considering an external battery pack with (2) 6 cell holders for 12 cells
total. That would be 14.4 V total. A single series diode
KX3 requires at least 13.8 Volts to TX 12-15 Watts.

Hi Chris
I use LiFePo4 batteries
The voltage is higher and I can transmit higher power for example 15 watts.
Bioenopower makes some nice ones.
Good luck Richard

Yes sir using 7AH gel cell.
Just found out the issue as it works to 15W on a bench supply so the issue was
pointed out to me by a kind list member that this is intentional limiting while
on lower capacity batteries.
