I use ipowerus 520mah rechargeables. They last about 5-6 hours, which is reasonable. I do worry about the 9v connectors becoming dodgy and occasionally have to tighten the connectors if it doesn't power back up after a battery change but it seems like it would be fairly easy to replace should it fail.

Hi Magnus, I haven't received an email from you? I checked the junk mail too. Can you send it to the email we have previously corresponded on. Thanks

Just wondering if anyone has any information about this. I noticed this line in the abelcine description for the Carat: USB interface for software upgrades and personalized user settings via Heden PC GUI. Optional smartphone/tablet app. Apparently the app is due to be released sometime this month but haven't been able to get any information from Heden about accessing the GUI. The manual also suggests some settings you can change this way, but nothing further.

Hey, I've had similar issues with my Carat. I got the epic run cable with the 00 lemo connector. The first issue I had was that the lemo didn't fit into some sync ports. I tried it in various different epics and dragons to varying degrees of success. Apparently they used crappy indian made lemos. I got a replacement one sent which had the same problems. In the cameras I could get the cable into I had the same run issues you mentioned. Turns out they were wired for the control port. I got it rewired and a proper lemo connector put on and in the tests I ran with it it was working fine. It went on to a job the next day and it wouldn't run the camera again... Not sure why that would be, but maybe it is an issue with the receiver as you mentioned? A new run cable with the BNC connector was made up for it and I believe its been fine since then? ps. What 9v batteries do you use with it? The handset is pretty power hungry.
