Hi guys, most likely I'll need to replace my IDX PowerCube series batteries on my rig. I've had them for six years, and they don't last enough on a job anymore. I'm having them considered for recelling, but in case they say it's not worth while doing this, I'm asking for some advice here. I have V-lock system on a Ultra2c rig. I mostly fly RED and Alexa and ENG cameras. Haven't had any jobs on the F65 yet (as I understand, this camera is quite power hungry). I usually power BOXX HD-SDI T/x and a Arri, Preston or C-Motion FF. I'm considering either the IDX DUO-150 146Wh 14.8v, and by an off chance, a Global Media Pro. I've had little experience with these, except and occasional ENG job. GMP have a series called Li190S, 190Wh and 14.4v. I'm no Steve Jobs when it comes to batteries, so I would appreciate any info any of you battery nerds may have. If you have any other tips on other batteries, I'm open for suggestion. Thanks!!! Fly safe!
