[Elecraft] internal battery voltages

Mon Apr 21 12:52:00 2003

If you want to plot a screen graph of your battery behaviour, take a look at
:

www.t-wells.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/k2_battery_monitor.zip

It gives you a visual indication of the state of your battery over a
discharge session. There will come a point where the battery voltage starts
to drop fast from 11 to 10 volts and below. At this point the battery should
be recharged.

It interrogates your K2 voltage via the PC and K2 serial ports.
