Need a Nikon DM-1 Connecting Cord

[e._thomas_hartsell]

I own two Nikon F2AS cameras with the DS-12 EE Servo unit that runs

off of rechargable Ni-Cad batteries. The problem is that the

batteries only last about an hour. I do have a Nikon MA-4 AC/DC

Converter that could be connected to the DS-12 for longer running

time if I had a Nikon DM-1 cord. Does anyone know where I could

locate a Nikon DM-1 cord?

Thanks,

Tom Hartsell

<p>Hi<br>

I don't know if you still come on photo.net, but, as a new member, I'm looking for a DM-1 too. Did you find one? If yes, can you tell me where?<br>

Regards<br>

Hello, there is a replacement for the battery now here:
https://www.ebay.de/itm/334009227075?hash=item4dc4805743:g:-pYAAOSwXmJiad6w&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoIJiDCKDVgHgcohx6LNosPRI8ixYSeCd2gwcsQ%2FCHFwPbCDp6J2DPPHg0smRnMu8RkYBWY%2FyOBI12QO%2Fv%2B%2FqPwdfhB2sBWYxe3zYdy8mlRV4w2W7N3rQFXZUAeOWP%2BrkTlsqtQJ9OIKS%2Bq%2BOIcH5V9W3OkC4ZwJEd%2FWk60k38pZHfU3iRh1tJ4oNKJ%2FcsCTKOqcs1GU3f6s%2FeWI7OKUz9MM%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR7jGt_y5YQ

or at https://www.ebay.de/str/camleyphotographic

If aou have an old used battery you can try to make your own cable. But it will be difficult to get the matching plug for the MA-4.

You could try to use some contacts from a vacuum tube socket out of an old tube radio receiver.

Just try it. >Good luck.

Maybe Thomas and Christian are no longer looking for the items after 19 and 11.5 years respectively? 

Especially since they last visited this site just days after they posted.

Often I believe these are fine, as someone else might have the same question.

But now we have eBay, where you can find anything you want.

(Sometimes it takes a while, though.)

It seems that you can buy a DM-1 for only EUR299.00.

 

I have replaced NiCd batteries in some of my old electronics, though

not usually photographic.  Just be sure to take the old ones to the

right recycling place.  (Here, we have a special hazardous waste place.)
