Question regarding Production Moniter

[morbidodyssey]

Along with my shotgun ? I posed a few days ago, I have another question about an upcoming purchase.

I decided I need some type of external viewing device, I've been deciding between the 5.6 display on varizoom.com,and this actual producion moniter- http://www.evsonline.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=TMA13SU


If I do decided to go with the one on EVS, How would I go about running power through it?


Thanks

I'm not sure if that monitor is designed for field work but you can get power with a generator or a AC/DC convertor for your car. That's if you plan on shooting in a very remote area where theres no electricity.

I think a LCD will never replace a good professional CRT monitor

I have run one of those TV/VCR combo's before off of our truck battery before with no problems, so I am sure you could run this monitor off of a similar setup. I'm not sure how my dad rigged it up tho, but it seemed to work pretty good. I have also heard of people using those portable car starter things for running stuff too. In fact, in our marching band, the guitar player uses one of those to power his amp, and it lasts at least an hour.

It only uses one Amp, so a very low power DC to AC converter will work fine. 15A = 1875 Watts, so you need a 200-250watt model
