H-back, remote power

finally got this under control.

If using your H-back on a tech camera, you have to supply power. If not using the hasselblad storage/power unit or tethering to a computer:

1. big wave power pack: runs for an hour or two of shooting, will power other USB or FW devices.

2. the big one: Quantum Industries Turbo 3 battery unit and the Quantum SD-16 cable and the Leaf power adapter (got mine from capture integration). this will run your back all day and then some.
will also run the Quatum flash (even at the same time as your back) or other maker's flash (Canon, Nikon, etc.) if you get the right cables.

other Quantum packs may not work, (the Turbo SC, for example, does not have the low voltage out required)

Hasselblad will "soon" be (if they are not already) shipping the clip-on battery pack for the H4D-60
