[Elecraft] KX3 batteries

[Charlie T]

If that charge cycle theory floating around were true, an average car
battery wouldn't make it three years in a commuter vehicle.
Not sure I buy into that as my plain old (cheap)  #24 car batteries I use
with a solar charger typically give me over 10 years of service.

I would guess that max # of charge cycles never comes into play in most Ham
Radio related battery failures.  It is more than likely that it is simply
age or abuse.  Over the years I doubt if 5% of my battery failures were due
to exceeding the number of charge cycles.
