Hello All
I'm planning to make a mains power supply for a T32 flash. I dont have the
correct plug to fit on the flash but I though I could make do with
individual slip on connectors held together in epoxy putty. I just wondered
why there are 3 pins on the power in connector. Is there a diode to stop
the batteries in the T32 from receiving a current 'backwards' through them
when their combined cell voltage is less than the input voltage across the
connector? I thought this might happen if the batteries in a BG2 were new
but the ones in the T32 were run down. Does anyone know what the typical
current is during charging so I can select an appropriate power supply?
Has anyone done all this stuff before and I missed it? I dont suppose the
connector is some standard item that I can buy separately?

PS
I've got the OM bug real bad now.
