External Battery Pack Originally For Camera

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

I recently bought a not-very-costly external battery for my digital still camera, and noticed that it would not only output the 7.2 volts the camera needed, but also the 3 volts required by my NH900.

Needless to say, I couldn't resist it... I've made up a lead which connects it to the charging stand, and a present I'm seeing how long it will last while recording to 1GB MD using Hi-LP, with the phones plugged in on full volume, the MD supply power to a mic, and the backlight permanently on in the remote. I suspect about 24 hours may be possible but my patience may not last that long.

The battery comes from this site here in Australia - I don't doubt similar ones are available elsewhere.

I was surprised at the amount of tiny components inside the charging stand - it's not just a passive device.

Why does the manual say to remove the MD from the charging stand when it's in use? Has anyone discovered a downside to that? I could use the normal power input socket instead but for my forseen purposes, the changing stand will be neater.
