[Elecraft] Found this super cheap battery box for KX QRP radio

[Tom Redfern]

I thought someone here might be interested in this.  It's a very handy
battery pack  for a KX  QRP radio...

I just found one  in a thrift store for 99 cents.  I like it and looked
it up on the Web.  Mine required the touch of vinegar to clean a couple
of contacts.

Mine is the 10 battery model, but I see they also make it in 8 which
might be the way if you are using Alkaline.

10 Eneloops and you have a max of 14.5v and even the barrel connector
seems to be just right as is.

Quality is typical Chinese so you'll want rubber bands and or tape
around it, and did I mention it's very inexpensive?  At this price, a
guy could order two or three.

it might doubles as an expendable battery protector too.  If you drop
it, it'll probably shatter and save your Eneloops  from some of the impact.
