[Elecraft] K2, K3 DC Power Accessory?

[Fred (FL)]

Some time back, in late 2006 - a ham came out with
a DC POWER CONNECTION "KIT" - for the Yaseu FT-817ND.
It was a kit of parts, and also 2 powerpole connectors
for the kit.  My memory may mislead me - but I recall
the kit had to do with either eliminating the risk
of one connecting the DC 13.8vdc black/red wires
backwards to that FT-817ND rig.  And there may have
been power-spike protection in kit too.  The kit was
something like $23.

It was to decrease the DC Power risk, that apparently
was a real possibiity with the FT-817ND.

Is this something that someone needs to create, for
the K2 and the K3?

As I recall - when the ham was selling them, it
was a hot item, for the FT-817ND QRP Yaseu rig.

Fred,
