I use the 3-cell lipo batteries that I use for my R/C planes. They are
small (~1x1.5x4"), 11.1v @ 30A! I've run my K1 or KX1 for nearly a week
on a single charge, operating as much as I cared to. R/C use demands
lots of current for a relatively short flight of 10-15 minutes. When
they no longer deliver a long enough flight, I retire them to ham radio
use where they seem to last forever and the relatively modest current draw.
