    Hey guys,

    I dont really know if this is a good question for this board, but here goes. I recently bought a 7in TFT monitor for my XL1. I got it off Ebay. It works good and looks good, but I misread and it didnt come with a battery pack. The simple little instructions didnt have any info other than to either hook the DC to wall, or battery pack. Well, I don’t even see anywhere to hook a battery pack to it. Is there a way to do this, improvise? I sent the Ebay dealer this question and havent heard back so I’m throwing this out there.

    Thanks,

    Todd

    What brand is it? Maybe the manufacturer has a web site. I use a 7″ TFT from VariZoom on my XL2 (www.varizoom.com) that works great, the battery comes with it and bottom mounts on the monitor through a threadhole. You can “stack” a second battery below the first one for longer shoots ( I highly recommend this, the single battery alone does not last long enough )
