Hello, Does anyone know the pin out of the motor drive linkage?

(it is the 3 pins in the bottom)

I would like to create an external rechargeable battery so i don't need to buy batteries

Fixing a "device" (of your own) would be hard in those 3 pins.

If you have the Drive, just use the batteries holder of the drive (sliding out holder),

then use rechargeable batteries in it.

Go for simple process.

its bulky though, im only doing power nor anything else (a pack that is like 5-10mm thick at most)

I don't know the answer, though I bet Gus Lazzari does:

I'm intrigued why you'd bother, though. You can get ~5 lithium CR1/3N batteries for the price of a roll of Portra, and each one will be good for dozens of rolls.
