It consists of 4 external D cells instead of the internal 4 AA cells. Has anyone tried to make their own power pack using the LVC-3 cord and a 4 D cells? Does anyone have a LVP-2 that they can tell me about so that I can make one? I plan to be doing some shooting of about 1000 pictures over a period of two days and for most of them I will need a flash. Since this is a show I will be taking pictures for, I'd rather not have to spend the time changing batteries or go carry a lot of them around with me all the time. Herb...
