Einbau neuerer Hytron 100-Batterien in ältere EFP steadicam-Anlagen für Hytron 120-Batterien
17 Jahre alt. Geräte und Preise können sich seitdem geändert haben.
Was die Diskussion ergab
- Anton Bauer modified the battery casing dimensions, making newer Hytron 100 batteries incompatible with older EFP battery cage designs.
- Removing the plastic stickers on the top and bottom of Hytron 100 batteries can reduce their size enough to fit into older cages.
- Lowering the battery cage mounting position can accommodate newer battery styles.
- An aluminum spacer piece on the top right side of some EFP battery cages prevents newer Hytron 100 batteries from seating completely, and grinding this piece flush can resolve the fitment issue.
- The Anton Bauer T-plate hotswap system with Dionic batteries was used as an alternative power solution for EFP rigs, providing 180 watts of capacity.
Hängt ab von
- The discussion is specific to EFP steadicam rigs and their battery cage designs.
- Battery case changes occurred approximately three years before 2009, affecting availability of older Hytron 120 models.
- Some proposed solutions like rotating the battery mount 90 degrees did not work in all cage configurations.
- The T-plate alternative solution may not be suitable for all EFP setups.
