V-mount Battery for VHS Camcorder
Howdy folks,
I found this mint RCA CC300 at Goodwill the other day and the original battery held enough charge to power it up. The tape deck needs new belts but other than that...everything seems to work.
My question is whether or not a V-mount battery like this one (which has a 12v DC out) could be used to power the camera through its DC input (which seems to also be 12v).
Kinda stupid to spend 8x the price of the camera on a battery, but a power source that's modern, reliable, and portable would be really clutch.
Any thoughts? Would also love to hear about anyone else's experiences with this camera more broadly.
Warm regards
