Hello guys,

I had the brilliant idea 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 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
