[Elecraft] K1 Battery Power

[Dauer, Edward]

Just added the battery option to a K1 and noticed something interesting.  When operating on battery power, no matter how the output power is set the actual power out is limited to about 2.0 watts.  It would make sense if this were a battery power conservation strategy; but I couldn’t find anything about it in either the battery option manual or the K1 manual.  Is this the designed behavior?
