Regarding using 16.7 V LiPo battery and regulator with KX3...
I have been quite successful using 4S LiPo batteries for 4 years now, first
with my FT-817, now with my KX3. My equipment is shown here:
http://kr7w-sota.blogspot.com/ Scroll down a bit for the battery stuff.
If you view the Flickr photos- be sure to turn on the 'show info' option
(upper R corner) for more info.
I can charge my batteries in the car to/from the operating site from the
car accessory power jack. At home I use a 1 amp wall transformer or
connect it to a ham radio power supply- like Astron- to charge at 1/2 amp.
For more info, email me off list.
FYI and Best Regards,
Rich KR7W
