Batteries for Tascam DR-680

Recommended Posts

Back when I had a 680, I bought some  6.8Ah LiPo 12v batteries on eBay for about $20 each. They ran the 680 and a 302 for about 8 hours or so. They were very slow charging though, so few are needed. I ran the Phantom powered boom mic(s) through the 302 and the wireless' direct into the 680 @ line level and the 680 HP out to the 302's HP return.

FWIW, the 680 has a hardwired preamp bypass circuit, unlike most recorders that just insert a pad to the preamp when switched to line.

Hey.. I'm looking for an A/C *and* battery solution for my newly-acquired DR680.  Did you ever get that converter cable to see if it actually works? 

 


I personally never needed it, as I already had 2x Feelworld FW4600BP, plus my DR680 was only my back up back up recorder and not my main one. (same is true for my friend as well, he has moved on from my old spare Tascam DR680, and he now has a Zoom F8n)
