pc330 fried
 

Hello guys,

I had the brilliant idea :confused: to make my own battery pack to use with my sony amcorder.
I made one for my canon hv10 and it worked great untill my canon started giving me the "remove the casset" message and is leaving me.... :(
The battery pack was giving me 2 hours of autonomy :D and was great (at least for the canon).

For the sony instead , I fied everything.

I made the battery pack and it seemed working.
Then today, I attached the battery pack and the camera was not turning one. The battery pack was hot...I suddenly removed it and I was smelling burn in both my camcorder and battery pack.

If I am correct, what I did was that , when I attached my battery back to teh sony camcorder , I forgot to remove the original battery pack of the sony camcorder....so maybe I overpowered it......
I know that this forum is not a repairing help forum , but I was wondering if someone of u had similar experience and know if maybe the camcorders have inside them like a resistor or something similar that blows up when to much power goes to the camcorder and can save the camcorder.
I maybe buy the resistor or fusible and make the camera work again...
today was a very sad day for me
Thank you
Marco

id say ur out of luck. that is an old camcorder so i doubt theres spare parts around

i bought a generic sony battery on ebay for $25 and it lasts for 4 hours, i dont know why you screw around and try and make ur own

The simple unswer is, because I am stupid and I did not know that it exits a 4 hours battery.
I hope to fix it
