Scarlet-X #1007 with Quad Battery Module

That's a nice setup you got there Dominick, but I'm still waiting for the Dual Module. Quad equipped camera just seems to long to me.

This was discussed quite a bit awhile back. RED stated that there was not yet any power management implemented in the firmware and, as a result, there was no difference in battery usage whether shooting or not. Someone did an actual test and confirmed this. I don't believe the power management situation has changed since.

(I'll search for the thread where it's discussed but no guarantees.)

Oh, I don't remember seeing that thread. If you find it please link me to it. I hope they do implement power management soon to get better battery run times.

That's a nice setup you got there Dominick, but I'm still waiting for the Dual Module. Quad equipped camera just seems to long to me.

Thank you! And yes, I'm waiting for the Dual Module as well. I think both of the modules have their own benefits for different situations.
