loads of interest .. no biters yet. That's a shame for such a nice mix of oldskool and modern steadicam goodies. You can fly nice serious camera's with this combination. As already dropped on Facebook selling page, let's drop it here as well. BUMP 3750,- euro which is a steal in my opinion !! Cheers, Erik

Asking $5250.

$3500? make me an offer

new price $1850 or make an offer

Rarely used Black canisters for Titan arm. $3600 OBO. Free case and shipping.

Hey Tim, Just sent the $50 via pay pal. Thanks, Brett

Steadicam Ultra vest for sale, in great condition. It comes with extra back pads, soft bag and hard case. All pads were just cleaned, and some have new foam. This is the perfect vest for someone who is just starting out and looking to put together their first big rig. Local pickup in Los Angeles, or shipping in CONUS at buyers expense. Asking $2500 or best offer.

Bump. Still available. A Zephyr package available for $6500 in Los Angeles (This is without the car mount listed above).

I recently switched over to an Artemis 2 so these powered plates won't work for me anymore. Both plates are in great condition and are well made by SJS. New, these are $295 each. I'm asking for $200 for one or $300 if you buy both. Buyer pays for shipping/handling. Local pickup in Los Angeles, CA

Used but in excellent working conditions. No issues. This is the mount that allow the operator to switch between 12v and 24v. It's also a great mount for gyros. Dovetail isn't pictured but I can get one to anyone interested if requested. New, this $825, I'm asking for $400 Buyer pays for shipping/handling. Local pickup in Los Angeles, CA.

Still available. Accepting any reasonable offer.

It sounds like the batteries were passing 24v through the normal 12v pins on your battery plates. The M2 as a rig is not designed for 24v batteries, and in fact if you switched the rig into “24v” mode would get 48v out of the 24v pins on the sled. Assuming that your batteries are 24v only and not “dual voltage”, when you put your 24v battery on, it is going to output 24v on all the 12v output pins on the sled. This could do damage to any electronics not designed as multi-voltage capable. This is a big problem, and could easily damage a camera or accessory - in fact I’m not sure if you’ve damaged your Volt since you put 26v into the input pins where it was expecting 12-16v. Again, unless your batteries are dual-voltage and smartly sense what type of plate they are on (like the Helix dual-voltage type) I absolutely would not use them on your rig!

As manufacturer of Vest lite from which they took deep inspiration, I cannot comment. Just judge by yourself : https://www.smartsystem.com/product/vest-lite/

I have this sled just sitting in storage as a back up, but I also use my wave as a back up. So time to offload it. It's currently on a MKV V4 1.5" sled, with a betz top stage, gold mount plates and I will include my cinetronic monitor if wanted. It does not have a working monitor mount unfortunately. power cables, and a pelican case. I will happily break the gimbal with volt from the sled for an easy sale. scratches on belt motor are cosmetic, thin paint on those motors the volt set up comes with a power cable for the MKV sled, size rings for different size posts, volt drive cable and mounting hardware for the betz top stage. Sled with volt $13500 Sled alone $7k Volt and gimbal $8500 Buyer pays shipping, available for pick up in Brooklyn, NY. Can be personally delivered in the tristate area for a fee.

Update. The ARM is sold. The sled with Volt is still available for $17K. Let know if you have any questions

Couple of things here, and proceed with caution for anyone reading... With B-Mount batteries, specifically from Bebop's current lineup, they operate at either 14.4v nominal (referred by us usually as '12v mode') or 28.8v (referred as '24v mode'). They call these 'Dual Voltage' batteries. Not all B-mount batteries from different manufacturers may behave the same way, and some only operate in 24v mode. With the Bebop adaptor plate you linked to above, the PLATE determines which mode the battery will supply voltage. So in that example link above, that plate 'tells' the battery to supply 12v mode, so in this instance, the B-Mount battery will behave like any other 14.4v gold mount battery as usual. Also, Bebop do not currently make a 24v Plate to standard AB Gold Mount for good reason. Side note, Anton Bauer do make a 24v plate called 'Gold Mount PLUS' for their line of 24v Gold Mount Batteries, however you cannot physically mount one of their 24v gold mount batteries on a standard (non-plus) 12v gold mount plate for obvious safety reasons. If it's a case of owning or having access to B mount batteries and wanting to power 24v cameras like the A35 from your rig, then by all means a 12v adaptor plate and 'dual voltage' B-Mount batteries should be fine, however to achieve the 24v required for those cameras, with the M2 and all current rigs (with the exception of 3 I know of), you would still have to have 2 or more batteries on the sled in the correct positions to achieve 24v (+'24v mode' selected on your sled - which outputs 24v and 12v simultaniously). If your goal is to power the entire sled using a single 24v battery, or multiple 24v batteries, then you will run into problems and I don't believe right now it's worth the effort.

Bump 17k for the sled with transvideo monitor / camjam monitor mount / docking bracket and hard case 4500$ for the betz wave / 1000 for the wave rider 9000 for g70x

Down to 4000$

I'd like to try to use a b mount to gold mount adapter and use directly the b mount 24 batteries to power a 24 volt camera like the alexa 35 is it safe? would i Burn out the M2 tiffen eletronics by powering it with a 24 volt battery? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1645600-REG/bebob_b2acine_b_mount_to_gold_mount.html

In a rush I purchased some 26V batteries by mistake, not thinking. I’m on set and couldn’t figure out why I was getting power to my M2 top stage but it wasn’t passing that power to the Volt on the gimbal, it also wouldn’t pass power to the D-Tap ports. I’ve tried switching to 24v on the bottom but no dice. I can’t return these batteries. Is there any way to get this to work with the volt? Is there adapter plates I don’t know of? I assume I’m shit out of luck but figured I’d ask.
