    Car Charger for DJI Inspire 1, charge 3 batteries at the same time

    The Inspire batteries are 26V. This device is not compatible at all with the inspire.

    Adorama Camera

    I would recommend NOT dealing with anyone that says "call DJI." Amazon direct (not fulfilled by someone else) or B&H are both easy to deal with. Others are too.

    Car Charger for DJI Inspire 1, charge 3 batteries at the same time

    It only claims to produce 4 amps. Roughly what the 100W charger produces. That is enough to charge one battery in the 100W time frame assuming the voltage doesn't fall off under load, or low input conditions. 3 batteries will take 3 times as long. Even if the device could produce more...

    This Is Scary Stuff For All Of Us!

    I think this is exactly what parents of teen-aged daughters, need to have handy for show and tell, heheh (j/k)

    Fireworks vs. Drones

    IIRC, the AMA Safety Code requires compliance with any other government imposed limits and rules, who or whatever they are.

    Fireworks vs. Drones

    It is valid flying anywhere. As long as flight is consistent with the AMA Safety Code, Also not for commercial purposes, hobby flyers only (this board seems to be 50/50 hobby vs Pro).

    iOS 8.4 update question

    I flew this morning using 1.2.0 on the iOS 9 public beta on an iPad Mini 2. New version app, on beta iOS, not really very smart, but it worked fine. The iOS beta is flaky enough though, that I have not updated my iPhone 6 Plus. I need my iPhone to work right more than my iPad. I should have...

    Portable Battery Charger

    Here is one battery that would be appropriate: http://www.lifelinebatteries.com/rvflyer.php?id=2 The battery by itself is roughly US$400 and weighs over 60 LB. Plus you need a fairly specialized charger to keep it topped up (without damage), another $200. If you haven't picked up on it, I...

    Portable Battery Charger

    Not from the 150W inverter described. Only one battery at a time, and not even that if you have the 180 charger. That ARK PARK gadget is a total rip off at $400, not only that, a 100 AH battery (that weighs in around 70 Lb) you will need to buy, is another $300. You can buy a standalone...

    Take Care tonight

    Local law enforcement made it very clear in my community. "No drone flights at all" Widely circulated in all media outlets, numerous news reports all week "Don't even think about it" Unfortunately, I chose to not comply 100%. I actually DID think about it. But I chose to not fly. AFAIK...

    How about a qualifier: Have you ever had to contact DJI Support? (I have not)

    flying with zeiss cinemizer goggles

    You really need to give them to your camera operator. I have flown with them while alone, but it is not all that practical. You have to get very clear of any objects before you pull them down and look through them. Take them off to land. I had no problem with them cutting out.

    TSA

    You probably cannot express ship your TB48 either, for the same reason. Ground only.

    REVIEW: Zeiss Cinemizer Goggles

    Yes, I know. In fact that was a minor side event reason to justify the cost to me. "Honey, I can even use them with my iPad!" But you still need extra cables to do that, in fact there is not even room to carry the USB charging cable. Just a kind of dumb set up.
