Hi Rob, you say, "You can also set the "shut-off" voltage lower, like
10 volts when you use the external DC input."

Though I have not tried using an external pack without an attached
battery also installed, at least on the 702 I think that setting you
mention only changes the the low voltage indicator and warning alarm,
but the switch over voltage (if I remember correctly, ~7 volts )is not
changeable.
I still have not solved my battery switch-over problem that results in
corrupted files. I set the file size limit to around <2GB to allow for
easier DVD archiving: this has turned out to save me some important
recordings as it is only the last file being written when the failure
occurs that gets corrupted.
