Hi All,
I’ve just picked up 5 x 12v new sealed lead acid batteries (7Ah) at the
local Hamfest with a view to using them as a portable supply for my K2 (in
the upcoming John Moyle Field Day ).
I’ve wired these in parallel, but was just curious whether anyone has any
recommendations regarding use, charging etc etc, as I’m new to any sort of
battery/portable operation. I also picked up a small 2.5amp charger at the
same Hamfest!
What sort of life should I expect with the basic K2 under contest condx with
this type of battery pack (at full output ~15w, as our local FD has no QRP
category)?? Would I be able to power the k2/100 from this, and again, what
sort of life would I be looking at ??
Any tips or links to relevant web-sites appreciated !!
CHEERS
