A thought occurs to me:  Wouldn't it have been a good idea to allow the
camera body to run off the battery of a winder1/2/motordrive?  All that
would be required would be a simple voltage regulator and a connecting
probe into the battery compartment.  Would make the winders a little
more expensive but should allow cold-weather use.
