Description
This ~2m power cable allows you to connect a Bolex EL, EM, or later model ESM directly to a 4-pin XLR (female) 12V power source. This cable is unreglated... the voltage you connect is what goes to the EL, EM, or ESM. This cable will work for a EM motor (see second to last photo) or a later model ESM motor with a 4-pin connector (see last photo). These power cables use Neutrik/Amphenol (XLR) and Amphenol (Tuchel) connectors. The Amphenol (Tuchel) connector may vary slightly depending on availability. The XLR connector varies (Neutrik or Amphenol) depending on availability. The cable is thicker than necessary to support long cable lengths (up to 8m) and to support being dragged along the floor. This is intended to be used with an AC/DC adapter, yet it can be used in other ways as described below. *** This auction is for a ~2m, 4-pin power cable only. The power supply and EL camera are not included. Ways to Use This Cable: Sometimes people ask how they would use this cable to power their equipment. Several possibilities I've seen include: 12V AC/DC Adapter with a 4-pin XLR female plug Look for AC/DC adapters made for the Sony AC-500/AC-550, such as this eBay listing . Lithium battery with a DC barrel plug and a 4-pin XLR female to DC barrel adapter Some lithium batteries with a 12V DC barrel plug are TalentCell and Juicebox Magic Power 2.0. Fotodiox makes a 4-Pin XLR Female to 2.1mm Barrel DC adapter (CBL-C1-DC-FXLR). If you search online, you'll see other companies make similar adapters. I haven't used any of them personally. Bescor batteries with 4-pin XLR female ports Battery belts with 4-pin XLR female ports Possible Customizations Upon Request: I can customize one of these with the options below. If you request a custom cable, I will make a new listing for you. Do not purchase this listing and ask for changes.
