Q: 8. Which SPECIFIC batteries do you need to power this?

A: You need only to use batteries that are Sony NP-F9XX configuration. Therefore you can use any Sony or 3rd party like Watson just as long as they are of the Sony NP-F9XX type. Here are two examples. I suggest the largest size to maximize the light's run time. Sony NP-F970 L-Series Info-Lithium Battery Pack (6300mAh) B&H # SONPF970. Watson NP-F975 Lithium-Ion Battery Pack (7.4V, 7800mAh) B&H # WANPF975. I recommend the high quality Sony if you can budget it. If not, the Watson will serve you well.
