That seems a good idea except for two reasons:
1. It wouldn't work for me unless it could handle 100 amps. I have
2m and 70cm RF amps that require 50 or 60 amps and I have just about
finished replacing all of my 12v wall warts with a buss that runs
them with power from that same 13.8v PS that supplies the KLine. That
PS also trickle charges three large Server Room backup batteries that
kick in when there is a power outage.
2. I doubt Elecraft would want to get into that business due to the
already stiff competition in that area of manufacture.
