Currently when I'm operating my KX3 portable, I have the 
advantages of operating from a house. I use mains power and a 
splitter to power both the KX3 and the PX3. It's kind of ironic 
that I operate pure solar at home and mains power on the road. I 
do find the idea of slipping a battery into the PX3 really 
attractive for backpacking, moving to a minimum number of things 
to forget.
