Comer 1800 only takes Sony L-series batteries or third party NP-F970, NP-F770 compatible batteries. For Comer 900, there're 4 models that take different battery packs.
Comer CM-LBPS900 LED Light - Sony L-Series Battery Comer CM-LBPC900 LED Light -Canon BP-900 Battery Comer CM-LEX900 LED Light -Sony EX1/EX3 Battery Comer CM-LBPP900 LED Light - Panasonic CGA/CGP Battery I checked with Comer. They have no plan to make 1800 light uses other batteries other then the Sony L-Series batteries. |

These lights have a plate on them to accept a battery. From what he posted earlier, the 900 version can be had with a battery plate that accepts the EX battery. The 1800 does not have an EX battery plate available. You would have to use a different battery to power the light or provide an external power source for the light. One option I believe would work is to use the very large EX battery from swit or others that have an external power tap for a light in addition to powering the camera. You would have only one battery powering the camera & the light. Anyone doing this? Details appreciated |
Comer 1800 light only made using Sony NP-Fxxx batteries. For the 900 light, it has 4 models but they aren't just battery plate that interchangable.
Comer lights also has a DC-in jack that you can connect to external power such as Anton Bauer. It includes 2 D-tap cables for connection. If you want to use your own cable, you just have to make sure you have the right polarity. The NP-Fxxx batteries and chargers are relatively inexpensive. Also, LED consumes less power. So with just 1 or 2 batteries, it pretty much last all day shooting. |

Oh.. that was just a mistake. I copy and paste the description from CS-LBPS900. Thanks for pointing that out =)
The CM-LEX900 only take the BP-Uxx batteries for the Sony EX1/EX3 cam. It will not take NP-F9xx batteries. |
The LEX900 page also mentions the NP batteries at the beginning of Specification section (though I assume this is just a mistake) - you may want to correct.
Also, does the LEX1800 version exist? Cannot find it on your website... |
Oops, sorry.
Should have read the entire thread... |
Piotr, thanks for pointing that out. I updated the product description.
For the Comer 1800 light, it only has 1 model that uses Sony L-series batteries. |
Taky,
Under this link: http://lacolorshop.com/products/pdf/cm1800.pdf - one can read about the CM-LED1800, which has NO battery plate - just the D-tap cable. How much would this one be? I cannot find it on your website... |
Hi Piotr, we do not carry the CM-LED1800 model but I can place a order for you. It will take about 3 to 4 weeks to get here. It is the same price as LBPS1800.
One of the reason I don't carry this particular model is, it's more flexible to have the CM-LBPS1800 that you can use both battery back or D-tap connection. |
Hi Taky,
Thanks for clarification. I'll stick to what I emailed to you :) Piotr |
Hi Taky, whats the price of postage to the UK for one of your Comer 1800's? I am very interested.
|
Steve, you can add item to cart and check out. At the very last check out screen, you will be able to pick different shipping method with the shipping cost shown. Thanks
