In the depths with no power.

[James Ian Gray]

Hi all,
little bit out of my comfort zone here, but the client who I have worked with many times now has asked for me to back up on a job as we go around a mountain area.
Now ok I haven't really had a job as a DITwhere there isn't any power and they haven't got any money for a gennie and they are shooting in RED Epic.

So I've come up with a solution for which I'm building a case with a HyperJuice - http://www.protronica.co.uk/onlines...P1-5-222&sid=p3tgs1i54j07lx9xv7a441779v16em61
But that only solves the Laptop power incase I run out.

I'm just wondering if anyone knows if the RED mag will be fine running off thunderbolt to FW800 bus power?
Any for future if you know any power solutions that I can buy in?

Thanks all for the help.
Cheers

The readers run fine with just fine off the Fw800 or usb3 ports. They also come with a usb power cable that will power the unit regardless of the data connection such as a non-powered e-sata.
