  That should work well.  I also have a small lith-ion external pack that I use like that.

    Nice job, but I couldn't face that right now, so, I just wired a power plug to an external 4-cell AA battery holder which sits next to the KX1.  I can fit alkalines or re-chargables.  When the external pack is run down, the internal battery takes over while I change the external batteries, a bit like a UPS.

      I have just uploaded a video to YouTube that explains how I use Lith-Ion batteries in the KX-1 for more voltage than Alkalines, and thus more RJ output.
