Gooseneck LED damage Audio on camera? at DVinfo.net

Can a Goose neck damage the audio circuts on my camera. It plugs in XLR and runs off the Phantom power. I was gonna use it as a camera light or at least shine some light on some of the controls.

Look carefully.... most of the gooseneck lights need a 4 prong XLR output, not the 3 prong with Phantom power.

I have it here with me it seems to work of the phantom power on an old console. 3 pin. I was just worried that if I was to use with my cam it might hurt something.
