The Scout has been run on larger Gelled battery here, (75AH); but its 
receiver drain is quite a bit larger than Elecraft rigs.  The Scout can 
be run at QRP by turning down the power pot on its bottom.  For 5 watt 
full time, you can disconnect the power lead to the final, and move the 
coax jumper from the final band filter to the driver, after unplugging 
the coax into the final bases.  That converts the 50 watt Scout to the 
QRP version at 5 watts power.
