Yes, I meant separate batteries, NOT the Elecraft battery. I should have made
that clear.
One possibility I've considered to reduce weight is a three cell battery holder
for AA Li-ion batteries, good for about 800 mAh, as I have used with the KX1.
With the KX2, they would be good for about

charger.
If you are going to be operating portable over a long weekend, consider
a 2nd battery.

One possibility would be to get a 3-cell battery holder, and charge the
cells independently. A charger which charges several cells
simultaneously, but independently, would assure balance. Unless you use
smaller cells, however, the will have to be external.

Hi Don,
I am sure they have done it correctly but I have a number of different
charges for li-po and other type batts so was just thinking of either
