Title: got my V3 switched over.now what about my P1??
Post by: Just Taper Mark from NC on October 26, 2006, 03:11:13 AM
so I am now running the V3 on a wally and have greatly reduced the weight in my
back by dropping one of the 6v SLA's  :) I would like to ditch the other too but was
wondering if the p1's will run off the lithiums and if so who's doing power cables  ???

I do have an extra "hack" cable that is p1>open end for power supply so no worries
about screwing that up.any help is appreciated as always  ;)

What did you do to your v3? My bag is too heavy right now.

I believe he simply purchased a walmart 9v lithium ion battery to power the v3, getting rid of one of his larger/heavier SLA batteries.

i run my p1 with the 7.2 volt lithiums, no problems.
cant comment on the 9 volt though.
