Can you use a cell phone battery pack as an external battery for the FLIR PTS233? I know the FLIR uses 5v as the input voltage and the cell phone battery packs are the same. So will this work?

Yes, it certainly will work. I've only used actual batteries on mine for about 15 minutes. The rest of the time it's been in use, ive had it hooked to a little Anker battery pack. Provides a ton of runtime, is cheap, rechargeable... all around great option.

How much for the battery pack? Can it be mounted on the rail instead of the unit?

If you would like to consider our new PTS-233 battery pack, they will be on our web site in approx. 2-3 weeks.  It will power the unit for approx. 13.5 hrs. Thank you.

Definitely the way to go! Mine is kind of a jury rigged version of this and it works fine, but i'll be upgrading to the TNVC version at some point. Much nicer package.

Can it be used with an Armasight Predator?

Not with the current cable we have utilized. The Armasight uses 8-Pin connectors which we will also be utilizing in the next phase as soon as we get the PTS line released.  Pulsar units will also be getting ramped up with our new cradle system.

Any chance you'll develop that for the armasight predator series?

For the money, you can't beat the battery pack. Have mine for the PTS233 on my 300BO. Works awesome.
