    Hi have a Teradek Bolt 600 that I want to mount on M10. Problem is it doesn't have internal batteries. What is everyone using to power wireless video systems? Looking into v mount batts for another project, but haven't found one under 2 lbs, plus bracket.
    Can I use lipos?

    Not sure this is an "Announcement," post, but I recently went through the same exercise and settled on IDC Duo 95 - two d taps and one USB. Attach w a cheese plate and velcro. Clocks in just under your 2 lbs target.

    Good point should have been on M10, I was in a hurry. Thanks though. IDX? or IDC? Never heard of IDC. Where did you buy?

    Did they express concerns about the IDX or Switronix solutions? Curious.

    No concerns, they just said that they use Sony L batts a lot and they last at least 2 to 3 hrs which is good for me.
    The ones you mentioned worked too. I just needed lighter weight.
