That looks good, thanks. Are you using that with an M10? Do you plug the ou=
tput into the mic input or line in?=0D

It's a bit odd that this sort of thing isn't widely available on eBay. I se=
e just one for $40, obviously home made. Yet there are Chinese versions of =
far more complicated devices for just a few dollars. The market mustn't be =
big enough.=0D

Hi Peter=0D

Here is a link that shows how to wire a battery box using one 9v battery fo=
r two channels.=0D

You can simplify this by eliminating the extra output that has a 300hz high=
 pass filter.=0D

I am measuring 4.3v across two EM172 capsules and 4.9v across one capsule u=
sing this box and a not-very-fresh 9v battery (battery unloaded is only del=
ivering 8.9 v, so a fresh battery would be even higher). Powering all four =
capsules will be slightly lower than this, but well within the 3-10 v spec =
for these capsules.=0D
=0D
I am in the process of building the same array, with only two capsules. I j=
ust need a good shielded cable and I'll be ready to catch the spring peeper=
 chorus, which normally doesn't arrive until early April but may be very ea=
rly this year, as everything else is. It's been a warm winter and very earl=
y spring, distressingly so.=0D
