I believe this is what you are asking... You would like to connect external power from EZ-B v3 to the wireless camera?

Do you have an ezb4 or an ezb3? If you have an ezb4 you will need to be careful as the camera operates on 5V... So you will more than likely need a 5V voltage regulator in order to power the camera from the ezb4 board....

The camera is actually 3.3v. 5v works but the original topic discussing it mentions the 3.3v and the risk that was taken to try 5v with it if memory serves me correctly.

Either way, it will need a voltage regulator! Why not use the V4 camera? Or did you only get the EZ-B V4 not the developers kit?

@revelhouse, proble. I found that using the search function. I searched for the words "Wireless Camera Power". The search function is located on the home page of the Community Forum at the top. There is a green button located next to it. It will come in handy when needing information:) I use it often!

Here are two additional pics from different angles from that search..

@Rich... Thanks Rich... Not sure why I thought it was 5V...

For older stuff (because I haven't had time to update it lately) I listed out a lot of useful topics in an index here

Look down the list and you'll find this topic for powering the camera:) It also confirms my memory is awesome on post #7. (@Richard 5v will work, Melvin has the mod done on a V3 with 5v supplying the camera without a problem, in fact it's very stable, much more so than before the mod).

But the search feature DJ mentioned works amazingly, I use it very often too, it gives the illusion that I know what I'm on about:)
