Rechargeable 12V battery solution?

[Lev Kalman]

Hi,

I work at an equipment checkout where we loan a number of Arri-S cameras. Currently we use them with Smith Victor 12V battery packs. The problem with them is that the re-charging power supply will light up green before the battery has reached the necessary >4.5As needed to run those cameras. 

I would love to have something that my student workers can easily recharge and know it's charged enough for our needs. Are there other batteries y'all have worked with that come with 4-pin XLR (or can be easily modded) that give better feedback?

Best,
Lev

Hi Lev,

I'm using this from Pluriboom with lithium batteries on my Eclair NPR and works great, it's really light.
