Topic: Best way to power this rig

[drfunkenstein2k]

I am tired of switching out duracells.
x2 Audio Technica 4031 > Shure FP24 > Zoom H4n Pro
sometimes i use 2x Berliner CM33

also any recommendations on a sturdy 13 ft pole?

Thanks guys!

Tallentcell lithium ion rechargeable is one of the go to external batteries these days.  Available in various sizes, built in meter, charges via 12VDC.  The ones I use feature 3 outputs: 12V port, 9V port, 5V USB.

Run the FP24 from the 9 or 12V port.  I think H4n requires 5V, so USB for that.

Nice rig!

I have the 9.5 ft Impact and it has been solid. No issues running eight channels on it. This one has a big footprint though.

The standard Manfrotto 1004. More expensive, but footprint is about 10 inches less.

You could also throw a pole on top of your current stand for more height.

all of you folks seem to forget the FP24 has a threaded COAXIAL power connector
NOT a HIROSE... you will most likely have to have a cable made for powering

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^   yup.
we had Ted make one for us

[drfunkenstein2k]

I am back stateside for a little while, who is Ted and does he still make these power connectors?

Please and Thank you!
