[QUOTE="goldwright, post: 228409, member: 4651"] Just an update, I have made my own power and audio cable up to do away with the extra plugs and patch leads. I have put a RC deans plug on it so batteries can be changed without pulling the whole lot apart. I have been trialling Lipo RC batteries, man do they kill Lithium Ion for keeping their voltage through out the load. They are unstable and need care when charging but weight to voltage kill any battery type. I have also purchased a few camcorder batteries and put wires in them myself like the Link tech ones. I have made some smaller Lithium Ion packs with the 18650 cells with only 3400mah and they run for just on 3 hours and only weight 110grams for when I want to swing a bigger coil.[img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/4651/1454914629_20160208_144642.jpg[/img][img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/4651/1454914555_20160208_144356.jpg[/img][img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/4651/1454914646_20160208_144713.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
