Re: [OM] Olympus Power Bounce Grip 2

I've thought of using 5 batteries to keep the voltage up.  But that's 
only 6 volts and the voltage is was designed for.  Since the batteries 
are in series I don't think you'd get any more current flow than what 
you could push through one.  It would raise the output a bit.  As I 
noted earlier it makes a 1/2 stop difference in T32 output.
