> ...10 watt and 1200 watt K3s have a different rear panel plate.

The 1200 watt hasn't been released yet.  We'll be using a single surface 
mount 2N3906 PNP transistor in a Class I amplifier that will allow the 
K3 to run on a single AA cell for up to 10 days, as long as the transmit 
duty cycle significantly exceeds 101%.  Any less and the battery quickly 
goes flat and the transistor lets its smoke out, which is a one time event.

In the meantime, please use our 100 watt version with its corresponding 
fan panel for your KPA3-equipped K3 and the K144XV.

73,
