NOTE: The 2-pin power lead is a Tyco Electronics (172165-1) connector with two (1-7709870-0) crimp
pins. These crimp pins accept 20AWG wire. The expected mating connector on the battery
plates is a Tyco Electronics (172233-1) connector with two (170360-1) crimp pins (or similar).
These connectors are referred to as Mini Universal MATE-N-LOCK by Tyco Electronics, but may
be referred to by other names by other vendors. This 2-pin power connector type is common
to various ENG cameras so battery plates with the appropriate mating connector are
available from a variety of vendors such as Anton Bauer (Example: QR-DP800), IDX (Example:
P-V2), etc.
