Yes, Paul, the Quantum 1 is hooked up through the battery compartment.
a special adapter (with two connectors shaped like an AA battery) is
used for that.
Quantum also makes the so called Turbo Pack, which delivers its energy
to the T-series flashes through the triple prong connector. This is
high voltage (similar to that coming from the AC adapters). Another
special adapter is needed here. These Turbo Packs allow for the
shortest recycling times. Olympus recommends them for use with the
T-45, for which the rechargeable batteries are no longer sold.
But they are much more expensive than the Quantum 1...
