Raven power consumption

[Daniel John]

Hi everyone-

Just got back from my first big shoot using the Raven as a B camera. Throughout the job, my second camera operator and I often were powered up at the same times, he on a stripped down
Raven and I on an Epic Dragon with a Teradek pulling power off the lemo on the battery plate. He seemed to be going through batteries about 1.5 times faster than myself. We were
both running Red Bricks. Anyone else noticed anything similar? I assumed maybe the Raven would use less power but then again, I've made many wrong assumptions over the years.
Whatever the case, it's a great little camera. Just curious.

Thanks!

Raven draws almost exactly 60W which is about the same as an Epic, so they should be similar in run time.

I find it interesting the RAVEN shows 15.2 v on wallpower while CF WEAPON registers 14.7.
