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

[Bill Frantz]

I have the bad habit of leaving batteries in equipment, 
sometimes for years. I have developed some skill in removing the 
residue and getting the equipment going again, all the time 
kicking myself for being stupid.

I have not had leakage problems with rechargeable batteries 
including NIMH. I have had problems with button cells and 
primary cells (non-rechargeable). YMMV

Cheers - Bill, AE6JV
