Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone was using, or knew of a solution to running a Litepanels Micro Pro http://www.litepanels.com/language/pages/micropro.php via a D-Tap connection?

I have Olof's fantastic shoulder brace and battery plate for my AF and I would love to run my light from it, but the only cable Litepanels could suggest to me was http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/564324-REG/Litepanels_1DT_D_Tap_5_Cable_Assembly.html

which is so short, it's ridiculous.

They produce a longer cable for their Sola eng light http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/819357-REG/Litepanels_900_6104_Sola_ENG_2_Pin.html but I have no idea whether it would be compatible or not. Are these connections generic or proprietary?

I would rather not buy a new light, because the cable isn't long enough.

Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

cheers

Cheers Gregg, it certainly looks similar. I've just had it confirmed by Litepanels that the connector on the Sola is definitely too small, so that's a shame.

Gregg how long is that Lowells cable? I'm worried that wouldn't be long enough either
 
Rich, we can make a cable for you as long as you want, you just need to find out the plug size needed (it is probably a 2.1mm, but could be smaller or larger - there are probably 5-6 different sizes out there)
