[Elecraft] KX3 internal battery problems

[LA7NO]

Hi list,

and thanks for useful information.

I usually do not deeply discharge the cells. This was only for checking the
actual capacity at the cells before testing.

I just measured the voltage of the 8 cells, once with the KX3 off, once with
receiving with high volume. These are the results:

Cell  KX3 off  KX3 on
-------------------
1    1,36      1,17
2    1,36      1,16
3    1,36      1,26
4    1,36      1,13
5    1,34      1,12
6    1,34      1,22
7    1,34      1,19
8    1,34      1,13

This does not look good.

I have now ordered new Panasonic Eneloop PRO AA Mignon Akku LR06 2450mAh.
Looking forward to testing those.
