are u talking about the 9v lion DVD batteries? Will this one work with the v-2..UNIVERSAL DVD Battery, 9V 23Wh LI-ION by Lenmar?thx
the lenmar is the same as the one in the link you just posted? also, i have read about an internal switch for 6v - 12v. what do i do here?
ok, very cool, now is the machine set at 6 or 12 when i get, its used, so how do i check? if the 9v powers it, its set 6 if it doesn't it's 12v?
I use a Kindkables.com dual power cable with two Walmart lithiums. This gives me a huge amount of hours, and if one battery dies on me, I stil have a backup.

If the V2 is set to 6v, the 9v will power it fine -- but the V2's low battery indicator and auto-shutoff features won't work any longer, unless you recalibrate them. I believe Grace has the calibration instructions on their website. At least for the V3, anyway, not positive about the V2. When I ran V3, I never bothered recalibrating because the 9v battery had its own battery meter.Edit to add: Sorry for bouncing the thread around a couple times. I flubbed the first move.
there is no switch for changing the voltage on the v-2. the 4 pin xlr input is wired for both 6 and 12 volts. if you wire the cable pin 1 neg and pin 4 pos the v-2 will run on 12 volts, if you wire the cable pin 2 neg and pin 3 pos the v-2 will run off of 6 volts.for the 9 volt lion battery i use the 6 volt system.

Does anyone know the size of the connector for a V2 power cable using the portable DVD player batteries like the ones discussed in this thread?
really?one week and not one answer.what happened to this place
I got ya justy..... obviously the V2 end has a 4pin XLR style and the DVD "wally world" lithium battery has a barrel style type "B" plug. Don't know if the type "B" is a universal code name.... but that's what Radio Shack calls that size in their "Adapta-Plug" series. Outer Diameter: 4.0mmInner Diameter : 1.7mmRadio Shack part # : 273-1705 edit to add: I think this is what you want.http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3780266
