[QUOTE="alank2, post: 1615650, member: 108"] Hi, I've got a 6V 12AH battery I'm not using that is perhaps 2 years old. I bought it for a project and never used it. I'd sell it for $15 if your are interested and want to meet me in Broken Arrow at my favorite meeting spot (Atwoods in BA @ 193rd/71st). Let me know if you are interested and I'll test it for capacity to make sure it is still solid and good. Do you have a 6V charger? BTW, alkaline D cells according to wikipedia are 12AH as well, so you would likely get similar performance out of a 6V 12AH battery..... And, to answer your original question, if you find out the minimum voltage your camera, you would want what is called a dc-dc switching power supply that would convert a higher voltage into the lower voltage efficiently. This would allow you to use a 12V battery and make the most of its stored energy. DC-DC converters can be pricy though... Thanks, Alan [/QUOTE]
