  1. I don’t like single use lithiums because once they are out of the pack I have no idea what their capacity is. And that makes them unreliable.
  2. Oh. That is not for outside in sunny nevada desert. But love the size
  3. Productions have been getting me Bivigor 24 packs. My “unscientific” experience shows around 10-15% less than “fresh” Energizer Ultimate. \ They have been working fine. Still prefer to use Eneloop Pro Black.
  4. It does not say the brightness. They look cool Good to know.
  5. Find an internal CL. Best quality of Maxx.
  6. I use it for back up in my car with 2 qrx and also sometimes when just sending to camera and the Maxx is the back up. Integrated Hop transmitter is good. Maxx barely uses any power. I use to use it for Podcasts but now when I retired the OneUnit Nomad and put back 6XLR pre amps I use nomad for Podcasts
  7. There are a lot of choices for one big monitor. My thinking is individual monitor/inputs will not need a quad box and will not use all the power all the time. And it does not utilize the size unless you have only one input.
  8. I was thinking about that. But if I go that route I will just get OSee bright monitors that are cheaper. I can mount 2 on top an and 2 on the bottom directly to 1010 Aluminum extrusion.
  9. I am getting old. I need something bright. 10” will be perfect but I can go for 7” I was thinking single 15.6 with a quad box. What do you guys and gals use? P.S. Not a fan of BLACK Magic’s lack of locking power connector.
  10. To be honest it is a lot easier to make a 1010 1020 aluminum cart. You are not stuck with the small base of Zuca Check Tnutz.com for all the parts needed except the wheels that can be purchased everywhere.
  11. This group has a lot of information on building zucka carts https://www.facebook.com/groups/1595929987382210
  12. Strange price indeed. But as I understand it is extremely reliable. Making it a desirable choice. “ I am getting my minicmit serviced and possibly will get the new capsule that is supposed to be better in humidity.” AS far as DPA goes It worked great in 100% humidity 120F in the tunnels under lake mead for many years. I would love to try it out. But when it comes to 4017/4018 vs Schoeps the schoeps is noticeably better sounding, I have been using the cardioid MK4 lately and is so much more natural sounding than mk41. Cardioid in my opinion sound better than super/hyper cardioid. Wide Cardioid sounds the most natural but not really isolating.
  13. I am dropping the mini cmit as well and getting a 4017. I love the sound but my schoeps have been very unreliable.
  14. it does matter what they charge for chargers. And batteries. they should stick to selling recorders and anything else the multinational conglomerate that owes them sales. price gouging their customers is not only shady business practice but also disrespectful to their customers. make something and sale it! don’t resale price gouge like any other shitty greedy corporation out there. I don’t understand why people always jump to deffend multi national corporations like whoever Italian mafia family owns sound devices!!! do you work for them!? are you a resaler? what do you care? are you generally defending greedy capitalist price gouging as an acceptable business practice?
  15. No not at all. I purchased bunch of batteries from Ghotam when they were sold at $120-125 each “don’t remember the exact price. Sound devices are saying it is 5050 but it should be confirmed. My 4040s have the rubber buttons as well. Just FYI the calibrator does nothing with an aging battery. It only introduces unnecessary fan noise. Sound devices should sale 4040. Not to mention BS like bellow. It is preying on their own uninformed customers… 4 times the actual retail price:
  16. t was a typo that was corrected. Those chargers are 4040 not 5050! Those companies get even better prices buying bulk. 10% is an honest mark up. Not 60-70%!!! I imagine they get $160-170 price per charger. Back in the day when Vin found IE and pointed me to them and I started purchasing for everybody. they gave me a $70,000 deal for a bulk purchase with my branding R.A.D.O . I approached a LA resaler with a reasonable offer of $10 mark up for me a battery. This was back in the day around the time Audio Root battery were coming out for $330. I was offered around $100 a battery and $165 a charger pay as I go. I wanted the batteries to be affordable for everybody. But I was cut off the deal. I am not sour. I am actually happy that lesson keeps me away from the sound business. Don’t want to live without dignity!
  17. RRC is Chinese. inspired energy is American I use to buy dual chargers for my friends for around $200
  18. This charger is made by inspired energy and around $220.
  19. It is a shame when our people take advantage of us!
  20. In my experience Any pure Digital RF is way easier to handle.
  21. I love him so much.
