Title: 12v 6000mah battery
Post by: Colin Liston on November 08, 2015, 12:27:23 PM
I was searching for multiple voltage battery packs and came across this:

I know it's only 6000 mah but it is fairly cheap at $30.  I am guessing you could open this up and possibly replace the batteries when needed.

Anyone ever try this?

Even better a 132Wh battery for $65

Thanks for the link this may be perfect for my hs-p82

Both this and the one Richard linked to look like great batteries for the price.  Assuming it specs out correctly, this battery is nothing to sneeze at.  At 72 watt hours, that's a larger capacity battery than a wally world, even though the wallys are a lower voltage.  I don't particularly care for the switch on this one though... Looks like it could be switched off easily by accident in the bottom of your bag but that probably wouldn't stop me from getting one if i was in the market.

Nice....my backup BatteryGeek 10-14-115 just started loosing capacity...was about to pick up the BG 15v 14-18-115 just for the Portico...but would feel much safer with a 12v max battery (so as not to fry my DR680) and save $90

Hi All.  25 plus years ago I had a 12V 7ah Yaesu  battery that they are originally  used in alarm systems for the same price of $30  at Radio Shack   for powering my VHS/8mm camcorders.I got hours and hours use out of it then 45 minutes with the stock camcorder batteries.They are still available online or at Home Depot or Lowe's. .Its nice and small to handle.I still use them for my portable devices today.I use a motorcycle battery charger to charge it.

Something that size will make your audio equip run for days with out a drink "charge"from the wall outlet.just make sure there is a fuse in the line for safety.
