Lots of batteries, chargers, and solar charge controllers here.

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.
