The Order Code is 4145 and costs (last I knew) about $18. You should contact the importer of Gossen products - Bogen Photo Corp., 565 E. Crescent Ave., P.O. Box 506, Ramsey, N.J. 07445-0506 phone: 201-818-9177 or Fax: 201-818-0060 or e-mail: info@bogenphoto.com. Their web site is at www.bogenphoto.com. The Gossen literature shows the current Luna-Pro S to have a sensitivity at ISO 100 from EV -4 to +17 while the Luna-Pro Digital ranges from EV -2.5 to +18. Why not go to the Bogen web site and request the literature for the products you are interested in and send them a note or call them about the battery conversion kit?
