[Elecraft] KAT3 tuner and KXAT100 tuner specs question

I already own both Don. My question was more theoretical in nature.

There is a practical side to my question as well, as I am deciding whether
to take my K3/100 or my KX3/KXPA100 combo on a vacation trip. Size and
weight is roughly comparable, and I have no intention to operate without AC
power. One of the questions in my decisoin tree involves the specs of the
tuner, and I could find very little to use to compare the two.

73,
