Zach Gutierrez Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Hi everybody, I recently bought a well-used Arriflex IIC with the standard 24fps pistol grip motor. Though it came with three leather “power belts,” none work (seller said they would need to be re-celled). The cable coming off of the motor seems to be a 3-pin XLR, though all but one cable that came with it are 4-pin. Is the 3-pin standard? Did the guy who sold it to me forget to throw in an adapter? I’ve seen people powering these with lawnmower batteries and Lipo batteries, but I don’t know much about wiring. What’s the easiest power solution so I can start shooting?

Premium Member Will Montgomery Posted June 6, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted June 6, 2019 Are the power belts 3 pin as well? If so you'll be fine. I've had Batteries+ re-cell belts for me in the past just fine if you don't feel like getting out the soldering iron. As far as an adapter...From B&H the expected availability is 8-10 months... https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1121420-REG/lowel_bl_820_4_pin_xlr_f_to_3_pin.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
