The SURVEYOR Moisture Alarm, Vacuum Valve & Pump for Canon EOS 1DX Mark II from Aquatica offers an added level of protection to the underwater photographer. The SURVEYOR circuitry integrates a water detection function that remains on constant duty when a battery is inserted. Should the slightest amount of water make contact with the sensor probes, it will trigger an alarm using both an audible signal and a rapidly flashing red LED to visually attract your attention. Adding the vacuum pump and pressure valve to your housing will make it possible, by creating a vacuum inside the housing, to fully test its sealing integrity. Once the easy-to-follow procedure is completed, a green LED blinking every five seconds will inform you that your SURVEYOR system is monitoring your camera housing and you're ready to dive. In the event that sand, hair, or other foreign matter would compromise the housing sealing integrity, the SURVEYOR warns you with both an audible signal and a rapidly flashing red LED signal.

This kit includes the moisture and vacuum sensor circuit, a pressure valve with retaining nut, a vacuum pump, mounting hardware, a container of O-ring lubricant, and a CR2032 battery.

Q: 1. Was wondering if anybody uses this grip with an arca-swiss type plate and tripod? Does it feel solid?

Q: 2. Do you have to use the same capacity/brand of batteries when using this device? For instance, I have both LP-e6 and Lp-e6n batteries, I have some Canon brand batteries and some third-party batteries. Will mixing the different kinds of batteries give me trouble?

A: When using the Canon BG-E20 Battery Grip for EOS 5D Mark IV, one should either use 2 original Canon LP-E6(N) batteries or 2 LP-E6 third party batteries together. When one mixes the original Canon batteries with third party ones, the grip will not function properly.
