External battery / power bank for push 2

Post by nutterwithbutter » Sun Jun 19, 2016 2:49 pm

Just had an idea;

Does anyone know of an external charging / battery power bank that is strong enough to power a Push 2?

Something for when I've been travelling quite a bit and the screen is a bit hard to see without the power brick

would something like this work (and any idea how long it would run off a charge) - sorry my electronic knowledge isn't that great

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Enjoydeal-Port ... B00V68AQL8

or this

Or does anyone know of a product which works?

I've run my Push 2 for about 6 hours on this:

Use it for all kinds of things in the field - recharging iPad/iPhone, powering still and video cameras, driving motion control slider, etc. It is really banged up but is still ticking. Unfortunately it is no longer available. Recently added this to my kit, but have yet to try it on Push 2:

You're looking for 12V output.

Thanks!

6hrs is pretty decent - enough for the coffee shop!

Any chance anyone has an updated link as I just ordered a push 2?

Push 2 can run from USB power only, tho with a dimmed screen.

If you need a portable and compact 12v lithium battery source, I have a few of these I use to power mobile recording equipment:

Tho I will say, they are a straight rip off now it appears, when I purchased them back in 2018 they were only $59aud, I now see these are $149aud and this is why I no longer shop Amazon. Glad I got 2.

Easily runs a Zoom Fn8 with a load of mics, headphones and led lights all day with power to spare. Downside is you have to use the included charging adapter, no simple USB charging like a USB battery bank so something you would need to consider when on the go if you need to charge off a car for instance. You can get a cigarette charging adapter which i also have but have never needed so far.
