[Elecraft] Please DO NOT leave alkaline batteries in your KX3, KX1, or K1 for any length of time

[hawley, charles j jr]

Bummer...were they still charged or not? 
I do pull them out if they are mostly discharged or near the end of date.

These were Energizers that leaked!

I just take them out now and go thru the pain of the install later.
