Best battery for sound devices 702

maria · 6th May 2010

Hello,

I'm looking to buy a second battery for my 702, can you please recommend a battery that will last the longest?

Sony NP-F970, L-series, Info-Lithium, Battery Pack (7.2v, 6600mAh)

Another option is to use a small 12v sealed lead-acid battery and build a connector cable for it to plug in where the wall power plugs in. When I need to run without AC for many hours that's what I do. I bought a Hirose connector and did a little soldering, and it was worth the effort.

B&H sells the replacement batteries cheaper than SONY. I have bought theirs and am currently using some off brand ones from Amazon which are working quite well, too.

The SD forum has listings for batteries as well as flash cards, too.
