Hello everyone!

I ordered 4 Dionic HC-X batteries and a quad charger for my Dragon package but they will not be shipped out to LA for about a month. While I can run my camera off AC power, clearly that is not ideal. The three obvious solutions are to buy used batteries, buy a different brand of batteries, or rent batteries for a month. However, I do not like buying used batteries, would prefer to not invest in the wrong direction by buying V-mounts, redvolts, etc, and would prefer to not waste money on a month's worth of battery rental for potentially only a week's worth of work.

Instead, I have a proposal for the REDUSER community, if someone is willing to lend me 2-4 Anton Bauer batteries, of any size, and a dual or quad charger for the month or so until my batteries ship in, I promise to offer my Dragon package and my services as a DP, OP, or AC for free for up to a weekend's length shoot (as long as I do not already have a scheduled paying gig or previous arrangement for the time you want to shoot. I hope that this is considered a fair arrangement! If it is not please let me know!).

If you have any other ideas about how you would structure a deal like this please feel free to make me an offer!
 
If you needed V locks, I'd take you up on that.

Good luck
 
Hey Troy, V-locks would be an absolute last resort because I would need to pick up a couple adapter plates. But if nothing else comes up I will definitely contact you!

Thank you you for the consideration!
 
Bump.
 
can you just cancel your order and get switronix? I got 4 of the new 190wh batteries in a matter of days.
 
I could but then I would have to get adapters, or new plates, for a few of the other products that I have as well. And in the long run I would rather own (especially because I want to rent out my dragon) AB batteries than any brand of V-mount batteries.
 
Wow I feel a bit silly right now hahaha. Thank you I didn't know that! I'll go place an order right now!
