    I took a D-tap to Lemo to power my Canon C300M2, I used the same cable on my modified M10, but in this case nothing happens. I used the power outlet under the Movi Pro, like I am supposed to.
    I don't know why it doesn't work

    Hi Alain, did you plug it in to the 6A Camera output or the 2A Accessory output?

    There are two 12V's next to each other there, and if you're looking at them, you should plug in to the left one.

    I just read your ansewr, is there a diffence between the Two?
    I will have to get a new cable anyway, cause the direction is the reverse one that I want

    Yes, I think you figured it out. Your DTap plug is in the accessory port, not the camera port. You need to move your DTap to the other port next to it.

    The DTap port on the left side is for cameras and has more current available -- 6 amps. The accessory port you're plugged into right now is only good for 2 amps.
