Subject: RE: [Elecraft] K2 - KBT2 and solar power?
Another suggestion in regards to providing the fused connection to the KBT2,
as recommended by Don Wilhelm, is that you make the DC input connector a
2.5mm connector to differentiate it from the 2.1mm power input jack on the
K2. As Don pointed out to me, it may do no harm (or it might) if the charger
(solar panel controller) was plugged into the supply jack or supply voltage
applied to the direct connect, but it will keep them straight and separate.
I've tried plugging my Smart Charger in blind a few times and it does help
in getting it into the right connector.
BTW - would you mind telling me what the 10w panel and controller costs
were? I really like the idea of running portable with a solar panel.
