ARRI SR3 - power options

[Filip Marek]

Hello, anyone is having experience with powering Arri SR3 with external gold/V mount plate?

[Dom Jaeger]

V and Gold mount batteries are almost all 14.4V, while SR3s need 24V.

Even if you used a dual battery adapter that somehow worked with the SR3 on-board adapter it would be far too heavy for the on-board magnet attachment, so you'd need another system of attachment, and it would possibly supply too much voltage anyway when fully charged. 

[Luke S Lasley]

Media Blackout can make you a Gold Mount or V-Mount plate with built in power distro and a voltage up-converter to 24V.

With only a bit of mechanical ingenuity, you could fabricate something like that with parts from eBay.
