[KX2] Battery Charger

Scott Russell
Can the Tenergy battery charger (from Elecraft) that is used for the KX2 be
used to power the KX2 like the ProAudio Engineering unit?

Scott,

The Tenergy battery charger is just for charging the battery, not for
running the radio.
The PAE power supply is not for charging the battery, but will run the
radio just fine.

Lithium batteries are to be treated with care.  If abused, the can
create fires or explosions.  You have surely heard the stories of fires
started by Li-ion batteries.  Use them and charge them properly to be safe.
