[Elecraft] Need suggestion for K1 external rechargeable battery

[B Hunt]

I've been using a Power Sonic PS-1229 2.9 Ah SLA.  It gives me plenty of 
power for an afternoon of operating the K1 in a normal rag chew mode.  
The PS-1229 is a convenient shape: 7 x 1.3 x 2.5 inches and weighs about 
half again more than the K1.  I bought mine used at a swap meet for a 
few bucks.  You should be able to find a new one on the web for around $15.
