I went the dummy battery route as well after some flakey cam corder batts.  Picked up the Sony dummy sled and 4 each 7V 4000 mah lion batts from batteryspace.com and built a pack to power the V3 and the 722.  I ditched my walmart lions, and store the new lions in a pelican.  Works rather nicely, IMO.

got a link for those 7v lions matt? i want HQ lion batts that are more reliable than the walmart ones. i ideally want like a 7v 9000mah battery without having to wire multiple batteries in parallel to get the mah up to around 9000

it would be nice if they sold a 7.2v 9000mah lion battery, might have to search around

I used these, but they have several others that would work.

I don't have any pics, but I'll try to snap some later.  It's basically the same setup that Fozzy is running.  He's got some pics posted in a few threads if you search for 722 dummy batt.

The batteries I got were $27 a piece.  I bought the same charger that Fozzy showed in his thread for $100.  The dummy cell can be had for $5 to $40 on ebay dependent upon how patient you are.

Here are some crappy pics of my power setup.  I've got 4 each 4000 mah lion batteries from batteryspace.com.  They are run in parallel for a total of 16000 mah.  I run a Sony dummy cell batt to the 722 and a modified Leegeddy RA V3 power cord to power both devices.  Much thanks to Fozzy for the idea and the help.

tits Matt, lookin good brotha! thats crazy that 4 x 7.4v 4000mah batts fit in a pelican 1040 nonetheless :)

Nice work as usual!

My dummy cell is powered by 3 x 3000mah 7.2v NIMH RC batts wired in papallel so I essentially have a 7.2v 9000mah NIMH battery, but its no 16,000mah battery ;)

It works quite well.  Not as protective as the Lowpro bags, but I like the functionality and moisture flaps.  I use the 4 shelf and have 2 accessory bags, fwiw.

Thanks, Mikey!  I dig it.  It's nice to be able to run the V3 & 722 off the same power setup.

so do/will you use this setup for every show or just longer shows and festivals? how much does that pelican weigh with those batteries in it?

does the battery meter on the 722 still read fairly accurately?
