I have a situation where my portable gear is in service, and I have a location shoot coming up right around the corner.
I wont be getting my gear back from service soon enough for the shoot. So I wanted to take my Laptop and my Phase H25 back on location.
I have read Micheals port sollution recently (originally years back when the write up made me go buy one...after buying the CD with the raw files of the different tests)
Local shops do not have it for rent, and at the time I think Phase wanted $2000 for this(maybe they lowered it to the reasonable $69.99 by now, but some how I doubt it)
I know Michael mentioned it ibeing a sealed lead acid battery...and I was wondering if anyone has made such a rig, or knows where to get parts, or has one that they can rent or buy or loan or...etc etc...
I rather make one if it costs more than $200, as the batts are about $30 to 50 max (My replace batt for the 1500Watt UPS backup is less than $120), then you got some cables.
***Also, I have a FW hub that has a power plug to it, and not sure how it would play into it, as I don't plan on extending the FW using the HUB, but thought I would mention it.
If you don't have one....maybe some images of it with the differnt connections would help me make one...Yes I know this route might not make it in time for my shoot, but It would be ready for future needs.
