Anyone using, or know of a source, for a compact battery with solar cell

(Not looking to power up through the coax cable)

Lots of batteries, chargers, and solar charge controllers here. http://www.batteryspace.com/

The company is based in the SF Bay Area, and is the US partner of a small (by Chinese standards) Chinese battery manufacturer. The Chinese company makes the individual cells, the US company packages them for a very wide range of applications and sells them. My neighbor, W6GJB, bought one of their LiFePO4 packs for use with his KX3 and KXPA100 that looks quite solid. Choose the battery technology you want to use, then the voltage range, and you get a page of packs with many different package sizes and current ranges. Many of the packaging differences are made to fit as replacements for custom packs in all sorts of equipment.
