So if anyone can find a barrel connector to 2pin cable that's available *now*, please do link to it! or even the compatible version of the connector, on its own, for a DIY project. Ultimately, I'd like to see a neat external solution that feeds 12V through the 2pin port, simply because I don't like that cable hanging out from the battery compartment and having to remove the battery compartment door to be able to this, but I also don't want to schlepp an Anton Bauer sized power brick around with me.defeats the purpose of buying a "Pocket" sized camera, even if the PCC4K's size doesn't really deserve the name anymore. Since my question relates to a dummy that's hooked up to an external Anchor 20,000mAh power-bank that can either feed 5V to USB, or 9V or 12V through a DC barrel connector, I was wondering about the voltage.the dummy should stay at 9V for about as long as 20,000mAh can power the camera, which would be roughly as long as 10 of the LP-E6 type batteries that shipped with the camera (minus what old-age has taken away from its original 20,000mAh capacity).so my hope is that I should get a solid 5-6hrs out it, maybe more.īut like you said, it's the Wild West now, with these theories, and only time will tell. PS: anyone know how I change my profile in such a way that it will say my real name at the top, rather than as "Real Name: Till Krueger" at the bottom of the section to the left of each post? The question then is, would it be better to use the 9V or 12V setting on my Anchor, to power the PCC4K? I was still unsure whether this is a safe way to power it, but after reading here that 12V seem to be ok'd by BM, I feel a bit more confident. I then found another dummy battery that I had purchased for my Canon 5D mkIII and forgot about it being in my camera bag.that one has a barrel connecter that is fit for my Anchor power bank's switchable 9V/12V output, and when I tried it, at 9V, the PCC4K powered on and stayed on. I immediately put that dummy battery back in its packaging and returned it to Amazon. I was a little weary of using a dummy battery solution to power my PCC4K, and first ordered a dual-USB to dummy from Amazon, that I connected to two of my Anchor power bank's USB ports.the PCC4K briefly powered on then off immediately, which made my heart skip a beat.
