What remote power source can I use for outdoor shoots?

Paul C Buff Vagabond Mini will power this strobe. Just go to his site and you'll find it. I've used it with mine.

Hi Jereld, it is an 110 volt AC only, I don't think you can have an external power supply. You would have to run a cord....

I was under the impression that it is 110v only. Maybe an inverter attached to a car or car battery?

The cam needs 12V DC. The little brick power supply uses house current and produces 12V DC

You would use the battery power if there were no electrical outlets such as in the backyard. It comes with a charger so you just plug it in the outlet.

I don't have the outside camera. I have a wireless indoor Foscam camera that I use through my router. It does have to be able to be plugged into electricity. Sorry I cannot answer the question about the outdoor Foscam.

This requires an external 12v power supply which isn't included. A decent supply can be found on Amazon by searching for B007TGO3HO. It's about $7.79 and should have plenty of capacity for your project. Happy automating :-)

Yes I was able to do this by buying a cord online with the appropriate sized ends....found one on amazon. Wired the flash out up to the camera trigger in....then every time I shot with hand held camera the remote cameras fired too.

Yes it is a safe bet this unit is going to need power to do it's magic. So if you can shoot 12V dc out of your fingertips, you're all set. If not, the adapter will the way to go.

I does need a power source in order to operate. Find an object to hind the power cable i.e. plant, bookshelf, vinyl tube...There is no battery in the camera.

The best options in the market in my humble opinion would be the following: Lanparte Battery Back Pack Plate Adapter Power Supply Pinch With Internal HDMI Splitter for Sony V-shoe V-Mount V-Lock Battery External / for DSLR Camera Video Light:- http://www.amazon.com/Lanparte-Battery-Internal-Splitter-External/dp/B00ARABA9I/ref=pd_sim_sbs_p_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=07DJMF5FF4TCXW360Y64 Tilta DSLR 15mm Rod BP V Mount Battery Plate Power Supply For Canon 5D2 5D3 C300:- http://www.amazon.com/Tilta-Mount-Battery-Plate-Supply/dp/B00FTUTRD2/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1405554263&sr=1-1&keywords=tilta+plate

It comes with a composite video pigtail and a small tripod. It can run off power as long as the source is able to provide enough current.

I'm guessing, YES but I have never used it for that. It is actually only enough power to re-charge my cellphone once. I thought it was much more. It does help out though. I use it for extending the shooting time of my GoPro mini-video camera. I do a lot of live switch Television broadcast and can't have cameras running out of power during a 5 hour council meeting. For your use you could Velcro it to the back of the FIRE or even figure out how to use it for a kickstand.

You can purchase the Canon Remote Switch RS-60E3. The camera uses a NB-10L battery.

The device uses an external power supply. If you have needs other than 110V, you'll have to supply you own.

Not an engineer here but if you can create steady dc power that equals what the camera needs, I don't see why not. It ships with a unit that plugs into an AC outlet which converts the voltage to what the camera needs. I am at work so I can't look at mine. I would think your solar power idea would need to have battery backup otherwise the cam will be down at night or on cloudy days.

I'm sure you can find an external power source but I use mine on the trail and they easily last 2 months before the batteries get low

You can use an external POE(Power over Ethernet) setup to power the camera from wherever you have the Ethernet running from. D-Link DWL-P200 Power Over Ethernet Adapter

You can also get a SLA battery and plug it into the 12v input jack on the back. A 12v 7ah should give plenty of runtime. That's really the only way to go for outdoor use, in my opinion. I've powered all my portables this way for years. D cells get expensive fast and rechargeable D's don't last long in powerful systems. (as little as 2 or 3 hours in one of mine)
