no idea how to hack it to work for my v3. I know leegeddy makes a nice little box to connect everything. also i got the 7.2 volt one. didn't realize it till it was too late.
If you're just trying to power the V3, all you need is a cable to connect the two. Leegeddy makes these cables. You could probably make your own as well. ;)
I'm planning on doing this at some point, too. You have several options:
- replace the modular molded plug that comes with the Li batt with a Switchcraft S760K
- replace the modular molded plug that comes with the Li batt with an XLR connector and then simply plug in your existing V3 power cable's XLR connector
- this more modular solution allows you to plug any device into the Li batt that uses an XLR connector and uses the appropriate voltage
- pick up a Leegeddy cable - he'll make whatever you want, I suspect
You then may also wish to re-calibrate the V3's low battery indicator to your 7.2v battery. Instructions in the Archive. Though it's not really necessary since the Li batts have their own low battery indicators.
nice brian, never really noticed that the v3 can be calibrated to work w/ 7.2v stuff!
so I got the battery today. my walmart doesn't carry them anymore so i got it online. said it was the 7.2. well the one I got says it's a 9 volt. I assume the 7.2 ones say that on them and I really did get a 9 volt one?
If it says 9v on it it should be 9v. Godd luck with the hack. I hacked one to run my JB3. I get about 10 to 12 hrs never fully checked it.
Just curious where did u order it from and how much.
walmart.com around $55 shipped. gonna get a cable from leegeddy. haven't heard back yet. hopefully I'll get it by bele chere.
i got the 9v initial battery on ebay for $15
now i need a box/cables and i am set
anyway the guy had others that were like 12, people looking for one should check it out if they are not gone or much higher now
doh! didn't even think to check ebay.
