Vexilar double vision/dakota lithium

[muzzyhunter]

I am thinking about combining my flx 28 with the fishscout camera,into a double vision pak.Looking at using the dakota lithium to power it,strictly for battery life,would like to be able to run both for 10hrs without swapping batteries.Has anyone done this,or do I have too great of expectations?According to specs,I should be able,but company has yet to answer my email,in all fairness to them,I havent been waiting that long.
Another thing,can the Vexilar chargers be used to charge the lithium batteries.
Lastly for those that have the double vision pack,would you buy it again?My thinking is the camera wont be sitting in the backseat,so it should get used more,and should take up less room in the hub house.
Plan is to drill 3 holes in a row with camera in the middle, on the marcum wireless panner ,
to toggle between lines.
Not much of a run and gun guy anymore,but dont mind moving the hub 2 or 3 times to try better the odds.
Thanks!!

So i got the technical questions answered by email from dakota lithium and speaking to a tech at vexilar.Dakota lithium confirmed my questions about battery life and charger compatability,vex would work but charges at 13.5 volts,thiers at 14.4 volts recommends thier charger.Vexilar confirmed the extra voltage would not be harmful to flasher or camera,also recomended using the dakota charger,and also suggested splicing vexilars connector to dakota charger so batterys wouldnt have to be removed from ultra pak,double vision,etc.,as this would have been a deal breaker for me.
The vexilar tech also told me he uses dakota lithium in both flasher and camera,and is getting bout 90 hrs run time on flasher only.
Now just for a little input from double vision owners.
Thanks!!

I have no input on the Dakota lithium, but I do have a Double Vision pack that I'd sell if your interested. Has the Vex camera in it, but I took the flasher back out and put it back in the original case. I still run and gun quite a bit, so the double vision was too bulky for me and when I did use the camera in the big house I like it better with the flasher on one end of the house and the camera on the other end. Since the kids are getting older they don't get as excited about watching the camera anymore, so I just don't use it much.
