Get battery package from William at Wemacro.com, not sure about the case though. This pack will power the Wemacro rail all day long with proper batteries, and also works with Stackshot controller and focus rail (has same connector and voltage). Make sure you get the right batteries, tabbed 18650 ba...

You have a terrific field setup.

Where can I buy that battery case? (I already have a RRS Groundpod).

I'm with you on your preferences, D. Would rather be outside living my own life than sitting down watching others live theirs...

Gosh, it's hard to know whether to leave well enough alone here or to make a final post in defense of this spiral.
