[Elecraft] KX1 Voltage

[EricJ]

Elecraft isn't recommending only 8V. They are recommending that you never go
BELOW 8 volts. Consider 8V the MIMINUM.

On page 62 of the manual, right side top, it states:

"You can connect any 7-14 V DC power supply or battery to J1, although you
should use the minimum recommended voltage (8 V) when possible..."

Why does Elecraft recommend that the KX1 only be run with
8 volts? That's even less that a new set of Lithium batteries would produce.
Any comments?
