Battery isolation behavior in parallel circuitry mode on PRO I sled monitor
21 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- When parallel circuitry mode is activated on a PRO I sled, the monitor battery remains isolated and does not participate in equal power sharing with camera batteries
- The parallel circuit configuration is designed specifically for camera and focus equipment batteries, not the monitor battery
- Keeping the monitor battery isolated from the camera battery circuit preserves power quality for video equipment and transmitter operation
Depends on
- Applies specifically to PRO I sled systems
- One user's setup from 2005
- The poster had initial misunderstanding about parallel circuit behavior, suggesting this design may not be immediately intuitive
