Hwr-hd100 Kit
 

Hello
i was just wondering if anyone found a site were you could see a picture
of what the HWR looks like and how it fits on the camera. i found the unit at AV LIVE for $172.95
call them and ask if they had picture of it No Luck
Call Jvc first off the rep told me $714.00 was the cost, and no pictures either
i said for how many units. went right over his head
i have order a IDX O-FS 100KIT $109.95 from B&H but the unit is back order
but if anyone has pic of the HWR love to see it
My camerai is 110
Thank you
Joe

The SRP on JVC's site is $190.

I don't have the IDX system so I can't say for sure, but if I remember correctly the DR-HD100 is mounted with a bracket that goes underneath the battery in a "U-shape." I've attached a photo of a JVC demo system with the full rig.
It looks like there may actually be two pieces. One that attaches directly to the mount, and an easily removable bracket that attaches to that. The flat plate on the right side might add extra support and allow mounting of wireless receivers.

I'm sorry I can't help any more than that. This is the best photo I could find.

TIM

Joe

Marc
Thank you for the pics
love your camera and all the goodies

Joe

marc- Where did you get your D-tap split? I could really use on of those....

I got it from my dealer here in The Netherlands.
I think it came with the Dr-HD100.

See the second picture in this thread. It's the same one.

Dr-HD100 FAN INTAKE
 

Hello
i got a Question

should the fan intake in the back of the Dr run as soon as you turn the unit on or does it have to reach a temp. higher than 38C

I don't want to damage the unit
thank you
Joe

I FOUND THE FAN KICKS IN AROUND 40C
now i know
joe

Yeah, I hope the fan isn't supposed to be running continuously. Mine only seems to kick in when it gets warm enough.... I always assumed that was how it was supposed to work....

Hello Adam

I call FIRESTORE TECH DEPT.
First tech said don't worry about
then i got a email from a another tech saying the fan should come as soon as you turn the unit on
so i called GOT ANOTHER TECH Now i'm a little upset, i ask the girl who do i believe, Saying to her this is a big ticket item an most important can i trust the unit. She put me on hold for about 5 min/ to check with other Techs,
came back and said it is not a problem.
If you find out anymore let me Know
thanks
Joe

Tim I have to say thank you too! I just pulled my DR HD100 out of the box. It's 10:00 PM on a friday nite so no tech support!!! I was pulling my hair out trying to mount this thing onto my Mac Pro. Your tute saved a lot of my hair! Thanks

Dr Hd100
 

Hello
I have a question

what average time do you get from the stock battery that came with your DR-HD100

Thank you

Joe

It will last about an hour. I would recommend drawing the power from your IDX or AB battery instead through a power convertor cable. No electronics needed. Works perfect. I use one 190W battery a whole day long which powers my camera, Video-light and DR-HD100.
