MSheldon Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 PS. I just looked at my Eneloop AAs again and they have a nub on the - terminal. The EBL AAA don't. If the Eneloop AAA also have a nub I bet they will work fine. Live and learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek H Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 I also thought the battery door was oddly difficult to use on the demo unit I saw... Maybe I'm missing something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afewmoreyears Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 My door is difficult to open as well... I don't mind though, at least it is difficult for those who should not be opening it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriskellett Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 My only tiny issue with the unit is that it takes a series of four different button pushes to turn the unit off. I get that it is a menu item function but does it need to be so many steps to turn off? After a few weeks I have just started to crack the door on the battery compartment open just a hair and it takes a little pressure off the batteries and turns the unit off. The side benefit is that if I leave the door in this mode it can't power the unit back up in its case during travel which is very easy to do otherwise. It is just a fantastic unit, I just love them, it fits perfectly between the back of the top handle and the antennas on the Arima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izen Ears Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Being a mini lemo connector hater, I hate this box. What is wrong with the 1/8" in and BNC out? Throw in the lemo if you must, but forcing that connector on us just sucks. Otherwise it looks great. This has nothing to do with my recent lemo connector problems with Devas.

afewmoreyears Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 You can come in or out that Lemo... If I am not mistaken... so you get two output options .. I have never had an issue with a Lemo.. but... who knows... And... If by chance I lose or for whatever reason don't bring one (won't happen) I can most likely use one from the DIT or AC... Many times they have a Lemo to Lemo... but they almost for sure won't have a 1/8' to Lemo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek H Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Izen, check out the betso TC boxes then. BNC in and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izen Ears Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 Thanks for the tip but I'm loving the six SB3s I've got! I hope they will be available for a while... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nallen Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 does anyone know if you can just hook a 5-pin lemo to 5-pin lemo from the tc on a 744t to the lemo on the sb4? According to each of there specs the same pins are in and out which would plug an out to an out and an in to an in. will i have to get a special lemo with those two pin swapped?

al mcguire Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 The 5 pin to 5 pin cable will work well, and you can jam either one depending on your need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek H Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 Important to note that Lemo to Lemo cables can be wired to be uni-directional or bi-directional. An important difference. I prefer uni-directional so that it's impossible to jam the wrong thing unless you have it flipped the wrong way. Usually they're labeled with an arrow so that it's clear.
