Introduction
With the KBT2 installed, the K2 becomes the ultimate all-band field radio. Rated at 2.9 AH, the gel-cel battery is extremely safe, and can be recharged inside the K2 continuously from the same DC supply used to power the rig at home. Power outage? No problem–you’ll never miss a beat! (KBT2 not available for K2/100.)
