[Frameworks] doiflex 16mm re-cell battery

[Todd Eacrett]

I have a Doiflex, and they want something weird like 8 volts DC. I made a brick with 7 C-size nicads which works well and is pretty compact. The connector on the camera is a 3-pin XLR and I seem to recall the pinout being backward, so check that if you can. It has an inching knob, and oil points inside, so you can confirm the mech is moving freely before applying power.
