Hummm...I haven't had any kind of trouble with it so far, seems to fire the
shutter fine both in single and sequence mode. I've been using the
home-built remote cable for a number of years and it doesn't seem to have
had any adverse effects. (At least none that show...yet.)

I would guess it would be 6 volts (the internal power supply) -- I'll hook
up my fluke and see if I can get a reading. I wouldn't expect there to be
that much of a fall-off in current, but maybe we can extrapolate for longer
cables.
