Matteo BONADDIO Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 hello everyone, The Bolex EBM can only be powered with 12V. If my V-lock plate isn’t regulated for 12v but my cable powering the Bolex from that plate is regulated 12v, would that be okay ? Or does both need to be 12v regulated. Additionally and most importantly, any tips on rigging a bolex EBM with power + a rec and stop button ? Looking at all the options, but can't find many. Thanks !

Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted July 26 Premium Member Share Posted July 26 It doesn't matter where the voltage regulation happens, at your V lock plate or in your cable, as long as it's regulated. The only caveat is that the regulator needs to be able to handle up to about 3A, and sometimes very small in-line regulators have a low current rating. You need a power cable with a switch if you are using an external battery, not too hard to make for anyone with basic soldering skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
