I would like to have the base K2's output power increase to 25W. This
would allow it to drive my amp (heresy, I know) without the KPA100. I
would leave the KPA100 + KAT150 in an EC2 in the car for mobile
operation and I would load up the K2 (battery, low-power tuner) for
"portable" operation. Same or better business for Elecraft (yes, their
financial success is important!), more operating flexibility for me.

Many will question whether 4X power increase of the KPA100 would be
"worth it" in terms of dB, versus the current 7X ratio of today's K2.
Like so many engineering questions the answer is, "It depends."
Obviously, I think it would be worthwhile.
