  1. Hello. I recently purchased an Eclair ACL II that did not include an original battery. The majority of posts discussing this topic seem to recommend 12V NiCd or NiMH batteries. I found a Bescor lead acid battery with a female 4-pin XLR plug matching the camera. This would require a male to male 4-pin XLR cord that I have also found. Does this amperage have the potential to damage the electronics within the camera? Is there any reason that this wouldn't work? The previous owner is uncertain. The battery does seem heavy and a bit expensive, maybe it is just impractical. Any thoughts would be appreciated, I just haven't seen any other discussion of this potential solution and am fairly electrically illiterate. Thanks.
