Will ya look at that? I guess they added it with firmware v3.00, but I never really noticed it.

I asked in the last thread but I should have been more clear. Powering the MP10? (USB-C isn’t an option).
I have a hirose cable that should fit a talent cell. Is that really the best option? Any particular talent cell I should look at? The on/off switches make me nervous, but then again, so does recording on a MixPre10 that doesn’t have a hold switch.... :shrug
So far, I’m really digging this thing.
If we are making a “want” list for firmware:
It would be nice to have a hold function and maybe the ability to see levels horizontally (if only using two or four channels).

MixPre10 II
8 AA Eneloop Pro Battery Test. Ignore if you're not interested.
I just did a test with 8 AA Eneloop Pro batteries and four DPA mics. Got 2 hours and 27 minutes. So that makes me confident I can get two channels on 8 AA’s alone. But I need an external pack for more channels.
So, I guess my question is, do I go with the Sony L-mount option, or the Hirose (some external option)?
Thoughts?

Hirose with external of your choice
use the 8 "AA" for backup and hot swapping the externals
