PROPOSAL: K2/10 Battery LiPO / 8AA carrier option

John Harper
Isn't this essentially a KX2 battery (ie, same cell type & number of cells)?

Li-Ion something with less max current and PCB board for safety and

John,

Yes it is almost the KX2 battery.  The nice thing about using the KX2
battery is that it plugs into the power jack in the back of the K2 - no
need to mount it inside.  Get the charger from Elecraft and you can
unplug the battery and charge it without opening the K2.
