Hello Guys. I bought 4 Series 7, EX-L96 Battery with PT-XF3 cable using it for SONY F3 and NanoFlash, But When i Switching on Camera there is Battery Error Sign. I attached advertised photos but it dos not work like that. has anyone any experience? On My old EX 1 this batteries works with cable connection perfect but without it there is battery error too. ITS OK for working.

And don't forget to plug the DC pin back into the battery when charging!

Hello,

I placed an order for the Switronix battery and have yet to receive it, however, I wonder if you could clarify the "DC pin" removal ... where on the battery is the pin located?

Thank you in advance.

Re: Series 7, EX-L96 Battery on F3 Problem

It's the EX1/3 style power connector that's at the end of the little wire that wraps around the back of the battery. I bought an adapter (from NanoFlash.net) that goes from that power connector to 4-pin XLR female, so I don't need to cube out of the power tap plug to be able to run the F3 and NanoFlash simultaneously off the same battery.
