Q: 5. I've gotten my SMMD2802 to connect it to SM1798 and to 15mm carbon rods SM851. The only way I managed to do it is to put the 2802 inside of the 1798 leaving some mm for the road to enter to the same hole. Is that correct or I can use 15mm rods connectors but in that case inside the rods there is no threads for the connectors. Thanks

A: The SmallRig Dual 15mm LWS Rod Hinge for Battery Mount (B&H# SMMD2802) is designed to be used by attaching the two small 15mm protrusions from the base to 15mm rod clamps such as those present in the SmallRig Tripod Mounting Kit with 2 x Plates and 2 x 15mm Rod Clamps (B&H# SM1798). There are many ways that connection could be made, among them your chosen method. Since there's no one single possible usage, we cannot describe a method as correct or incorrect. Ultimately, the connection must just be strong and stable.

The plate end is designed to connect to a battery plate like the SmallRig V-Lock Assembly Kit (BH #SM1846C MFR #1846C).

Q: 9. Does this pass through battery information to the Komodo if you are also using a RED-approved battery?

Q: 10. Given that this has regulated outputs - does that prevent the ground loop issue that fries SDI and HDMI ports when powering on and off?

A: Yes 100%. Using regulated outputs won't prevent ground loop issues from occurring. Here are a few tips from the professional source How to Avoid the Problem 1. ALWAYS make sure to plug in the power cable first and THEN connect the [HDMI] cable". 2. Make sure the battery you are using is rated for the load you will be attaching it to (don't power a full rig off an NP-F 330 for example) 3. Power off the camera and monitor before plugging them in (reduces surge current big time)
