Can I carry around multiple batteries and switch them in?

In theory yes... It is under a metal plate, with a slider used to open (no screws or anything). You will not be able to continuously shoot, but yes it is possible to switch them out.

I rather doubt it. I know that I have two batteries for my camera (back up, of course) and if I buy this battery pack, I'd buy two more batteries for a total of 4. I'm assuming that the batteries in the pack with discharge equally and if that happens and you don't have spares, you're outta luck.

You could splice in a dozen on the main battery wire and it would carry them easily, they draw very little amperage as they are step down or buck converter's............

I haven't and don't recommend that either. Save yourself the hassle and be on the safe side. It is better to charge each battery separately.

I had a similar issue, what I found convenient was having a second battery as well. I'd switch when I get home or if I have to leave in a rush.

Yes they can be used that way but keypad is more of a security feature.... batteries changed about once a year in a residential application with 2 exits per day on average.

No, it is designed to do just one. You should be able to do that with the APC Symmetra series. Through some hacks you may be able to manually wire a second BR24BPG, basically just putting more batteries in the chain. This site explains how to open one up : http://www.yourwarrantyisvoid.com/2009/10/27/breaking-into-apcs-br24bp-battery-pack/ you can see it is just 4 batteries connected in a loop, no real reason someone couldn't make a 12 battery loop instead. This has been on my project to do list for a few years now.

Yes you can. The first or main battery is in the body of the camera, this houses the second battery OR 6 AA batteries. If no battery is in it, the camera and battery grip controls still function.

You probably can but I doubt you would have room for both batteries. I have never tried it and never would.

According to the manufacturer it is not, it's called planned obsolescence. They don't want you to change it because you are not going to buy a new one and it's bad for the business.Technically it is possible to change it, spare batteries are available on Amazon and elsewhere and you will need to know how to use a soldering iron.As one guy with a bloody bandage on his finder was demonstrating how it was done on YouTube, "It is possible, but it requires a bit of skill" he said.

google if they can be interchanged. You probably can. However, I don't know the answer for sure, but would strongly suggest you use the battery recommended for your item.

In my opinion, no. The body frame is not large enough to hold two batteries. You may be able to customize, but a different body type will be necessary.

Turn it over. There are two battery compartments, each taking two batteries.

It would work fine. I agree on using the screws instead of velcro which would make it slightly more difficult to change batteries. It shouldn't be that difficult though.

There is no on switch. There are two compartments for four C batteries in mine and it works fine. See the seller's note as well.
