Ok. so I got my R-44 yesterday and was quite surprised at how small it really is. It actually fit perfect in my Lowepro Nova 4 along with: 2 DVD batteris and my V3.
Someone recently turned me on to a higher capacity 8000 mAh 9V Li-Ion battery from BH Photo for only $49.
Mine has not arrived yet so I have not built a power cable for it yet:http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/480307-REG/Impact_BPD8000_BPD_8000_Universal_Portable_Li_Ion.htmlI put the tested the 16GB PNY card and it read 7:40 of record time remaining set at 24/48 on Stereo x 2. **The test was only for 30 minutes** I will try to run the whole card down tomorrow night.
I built a power cable for
my two older 5400 mAh DVD battery > R-44 out of parts from Ratshack. One generic
6' Adaptaplug power cord with adapter tip B for the DVD battery side and and adapter tip M for the R-44 side. Remember that the R-44 power connection is reverse polarity so you have to put the M adapter tip on backwards. total cost $22.42
