My Todd R juicebox powers my JB3 and my Microtrack from one Walmart Battery.

I have plenty of JB3 batteries, so I have never used both outputs, but it is made to power both.

I use a 12SLA into the JB3 car adapter for long-term field power.  Anything less than 5 hours, I use the internals.

I have a dvd battery that will power my jb3 all day and into the night. My internals are kept handy, but out of the player when recording. Unless i'm using it for playback on the train.

I've been looking for an external, rechargeable power solution for the jb3.

I think this would work: http://laptopupgrade.stores.yahoo.net/5v7libapa.html

Thoughts?

I've been using 9.6v R/C car batteries to power my Pre and AD for almost 2 years now, loving that. But....it seems like a royal pain to mod something to run into the jb3 from that.

i second the powerrunner 2300 IF you can not get a vr box
the vr box is best imo because it runs 2 things of 1 battery
