Unfortunately, no. The KX3's normal low-pass filters are rated at 15  
W, as is the ATU.

The battery is very important; it makes the KX3 an all-in-one unit  
that you can quickly deploy in an emergency, take on a short hike,  
toss into a very small small corner of your suitcase, etc. It's an  
inherent part of the product.
