Anybody used these Came-TV V Mount Batteries?

[Roger Alexander]

Very interesting. They just released a "compact" line that will fit the dimensions for the Raven. 130wh for $270 is not bad. (I currently have a switronix hypercore slim 82wh for $260) I noticed number 1 on the battery says "Reccomend for use with farseeing chargers" what does that mean? Anyone tried these? Any problems?

I few quick notes:

The 65wh is the same size as the 130wh, as they used the same housing, rather than actually making it "compact".

The 5.5" height will also stick up about 1.25" above the DSMC2 expander.

I wouldn't trust power from came. Power can cause all sorts of issues. Don't do it unless u have to, go with a solid name brand

I wouldn't put a CAME battery on my RED they haven't been battle tested just my take on it.

Try Dynacore minis, its 155wh, super compact and $278 at their US office but if you are outside US you can buy directly from their China office at $200 each. And it powers the camera for about 2hrs, but if you don't mind the regular size, Dyna's got a new one out at the 310wh for $330 (from China office) and powered my cam for almost 5hrs!

Hi Ablodum:

Do you have the link to their chinese office? I found this link but there are no purchase options: http://www.dynacore-battery.com/productshow.asp?id=223.
