New battery meter for the bag

Tyler,   It's on the top of the Main Menu which is just one click away.   I guess it could fit at the top of the home screen between the scene name and Card info.

Yeah, that's what I meant by home screen. It'd be nice to not have to leave the meters to see the voltage. I'd much rather see the voltage than that rough battery icon.

My current setup is : -

Sound guy solutions dual sled (switchcraft) -> battery bud II (4 pin hirose)

 

Where should the 2 wire be attached to? I am not good with soldering and all these wire stuff, thus the question.

The 4 pin Hirose power connection uses pin-1 negative/ground and pin-4 hot/positive.
Warning: If your not good at soldering, the Hirose (10A-7P-4)  male plug's tiny connections can be challenging for experienced folks..

Thank you for your reply! I wont be doing the soldering myself. Will get the usual shop who does all my soldering to do it.

 

Does it mean that I have to mod my current cable? Which is switchcraft (dual batt sled) to 4 pin hirose (batt bud)?  Or where does the cable from the voltmeter go to?

 

Sorry, just a little puzzled of which cables goes to where.
