Wooden Camera 257800 Overview

The Wooden Camera Pro V-Mount Battery Plate with 3 x D-Taps features a metal design for durability and a sealed back that protects the internal wiring. The three D-Taps are unregulated and pass the voltage directly from your connected battery. A built-in digital fuse protects your battery from excessive power draw. The captive mounting screws follow the standard Gold mount configuration and the plate is not compatible with the V-mount configuration.

The three D-Tap output ports pass unregulated voltage from your connected V-mount battery
The digital fuse supports 12 to 16 VDC, and the manufacturer recommends not exceeding a 9A total draw
If the digital fuse trips, the MFR recommends unplugging accessories from the D-Taps before resetting the fuse
This plate is for powering optional items, such as the Wooden Camera Director's Monitor Cage, and does not have wiring for powering your camera directly from the plate
If you wish to power a camera from this plate, the MFR recommends using an optional D-Tap power cable

I do not see any open screw holes on the back for mounting to a cheese plate. How can it be mounted to a cheese plate? Does it need a specific cheese plate, or will any cheese plate work?
Asked by: Emanuel
This works with any cheese plate. The picture shows the product with the screws already in it. When you receive the V mount plate you will find that it has 1 mounting hole on the top 1 mounting hole on the bottom and 2 mounting holes on the side of the mount with the release button.

Will the V mount version be able to mount to this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1525898-REG/camvate_c2166_cheese_plate_for_anton.html/qa ? And also, where can i buy the additional 15mm rod clamp for the cheese plate?
Asked by: Isak
Yes this can be combined with third party cheese plates such as the Camvate. we sell many 15mm rod clamps for cheese plates however you may want to consider getting a cheese plate that already comes with the rod clamp such as the CAMVATE Multipurpose Cheese-Style Mounting Plate with 15mm Rod Block (Black Levers) B&H # CAC1523 MFR # C1523
