Title: ISO: V3 power cable...
Post by: sideshowbob on June 20, 2007, 11:14:27 PM

Hello everyone. I am in need of V3 power cable compatible with a BP-50. All of mine are sketchy. If you can help, PM me to discuss. No rush, but I'm going to start taping again soon and need a reliable cable....one drunken bump and I'm fuxored. If this has been covered, smack me and call me Sally, as I've been away from here for a while.

 :)

Thanks.

thanks tim

jason i would try to split the pins in the v-3 power jack.  just stick sonething small, jewelers screw driver or other small screw driver, and split the 2 pins inside the jack.
not to much pressure just enough to move the pins a little bit.  this is a common v-3 thing.  i do it 2 or 3 or 4 times a year.  this allows a constant contact with the locking connector.
if that doesn't work i would be happy to make you a new power cable.
thanks
