So,
Im picking up this little camera to strap to the barrel of a paintball gun for filming. Should be fun.

Some on EBAY have a 9v connector that ends in a DC connector and powers the reciever (this is fairly common). Will this cause any issues?

If not, where can I get extra connectors that you know of?

Its a 9v clip and converts to DC plug.

I'd have to see a picture of it but is it a simple cigarette lighter plug? If so then those are pretty common.

Hell, make one...Radio Shack and $5 worth of parts.

Its not a cigarette lighter.

Its a 9v plug on one end (for a 9v battery) and a DC plugin on the other (like to plugin to a box).

I figure I can make one easy enough, I just would rather not if I can help it.

I might though string like 2 9v's together and put a capacitor on to boost it.
