[Konvas] Kinor 35 Batteries

[Bruce McNaughton]

Dear Kelley

If you are talking kinor you would need to send the motor HOUSING, or  
more specifically the last section of the motor housing.  If Konvas,  
yes send the motors...

The photo is correct.  This battery slides into another sort of  
'handle' as seen in my photo.    This is a sort of 'mother' device  
allowing you to quickly change batteries.  The batteries also plug  
into the charger so you can be shooting with one and charging two...   
Someone put a Cannon 3 pin plug on this one.  I removed this and put a  
proper 4 pin panel receptacle in the same place.  Works well.
