Well, any 12V battery will power a KX3 [or KX1, KX2, K2, K3, K1, FT-817,
etc]. Assuming a totally flat discharge curve, you can calculate for
how long based on the TX and RX drains and the duty cycle.
The TalentCell appear to be Li-ion and they have a fairly flat discharge
curve until nearly depleted. The TalentCell site is more or less
content-free in terms of quantitative specs, but it looks to be on the
heavy side, probably more than a KX3. :-)
