I bought one earlier this year for another application. Seems to be performing per specs using actual data from this meter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Based on that I bought a Dakota to replace a K2 that was 6 years old and starting to show signs of decreasing capacity. So far only have a couple of cycles on it but seems to be a direct replacement for the K2.
