The cells are all good new 1900mAH Sanyo Eneloops.

I've used the battery pack with these Eneloops in into a dummy load on this rig, and the output power is over 4 Watts with no sag in voltage from the pack.

The issue (the rig TX meter low reading) is only evident when using the telescopic antenna.
