The cloudlifter is probably designed to run on 48V phantom, not the lower voltages discussed. Also I have handled one and recall it being built with thick walls to tolerate abuse, like a DI box, so it might be too heavy to put in someone's pocket unobtrusively.

I just came across Giant Squid lavs with built in preamps that say they are compatible with the h1:

Miniature Microphones and Accessories : Stereo Mono Omnidirectional and Cardioid

I haven't read it so I'm not sure if this would work but wanted to pass on the link.

I have had really good results with the H1 and the Giant Squid mic. The H1 does provide plug in power and the Giant Squid mic has a hot enough signal that I can run the input levels on the H1 in the 50 + or - range, so the pre amps aren't working too hard, and the sound is clean.

If you still need a small pre amp the Sound Professionals make one that works well.

I have an extra I would be willing to part with if you want to contact me.
