Title: 12v battery power?
Post by: allan on September 19, 2008, 01:41:08 PM

I got a 7" screen to use on my video camera, but it didn't come with the battery cable and the connector to the unit is a strange Panasonic connector. The wall plug is spliced on to the cable, so I figure it will be easy to take the tape off and put a connector on it to go to a battery, but I'm not having a lot of luck finding one... any suggestions?

3 options:

SLA (heavy)
tekkeon mp 3300/3450 ($$)
build your own from li-ion cells from batteryspace. com (time)

This has been a great and reliable battery for me for years now:
