George at OEH replied that with the Eclair HD motor, a battery giving 14.4 
volts without a load (ie-tested when the camera isn't running) is OK, but if 
it tests circa  15.5 without a load (which a fully charged 14.4 volt battery 
will do) then he doesn't recommend it.  

So I guess using a 13.2 volt battery would be safer. (Just pull one cell out 
of a 14.4 to get 13.2).  (-ugh-)
