Anyone know if Red or a 3rd Party have a flying lead cable that can connect to the DC IN (6-Pin 1B LEMO socket) on the Weapon Base Expander.
Looking to wire it up for LiPo batteries so need to find the 6-Pin 1B LEMO socket to flying lead.
 
what I do is to cut the cable of the ac adapter and then put a Male lippo connector on the stump and a female (same as on your lippo batteries) on the ac end of the cable.

that way not only can you save some dollars on expansive lemo connector... You also got a nice "safety detatch" funktion on your ac cable if somebody janks it it will Simply detatch whithout breaking the lemo or Pulling the camera of the tripod or such.

And the lippo connectors are dirt cheap in comparision.
 
I didn't realise the Weapon is the same power LEMO connector as the Dragon so I can re-use my Dragon power cables on the Weapon, which is great.
