This B&H Kit features four V-mount Watson Pro 14.4V 95Wh Slim Li-Ion Batteries and a portable Simultaneous Dual Position Charger. Among other applications, the slim and lightweight design of the batteries makes them a good option for use on gimbals and lights. The charger provides simultaneous charging for batteries with up to 6.6Ah and sequential charging for batteries with higher amp-hour ratings. The charger also offers a 4-pin XLR DC power output and includes an XLR cable.
This Watson Pro Dual Position Li-Ion Charger supports two V-mount batteries and offers a 4-pin XLR power output, providing dual-purpose functionality in a portable, handy design. It's capable of simultaneous charging, and the XLR port offers useful versatility. An ergonomic carry handle, flip-out kickstand, rubberized feet, On/Off switch, and LED status indicators complete the design and allow for comfortable and efficient operation.
This charger is able to charge two batteries with up to 6.6Ah capacities simultaneously, delivering 2.5A to each battery. For batteries with capacities of 8.8Ah or more, it provides sequential charging at 5A, first charging one to 85%, and then switching to fully charge both.
The 4-pin XLR power output can be used to power select cameras from an AC outlet or off of connected batteries. A special feature of this charger is that when it's connected to a power outlet, it is capable of charging the batteries and providing power through the XLR output at the same time, as opposed to one or the other as is more common.
Additionally, an XLR cable is included, giving you everything you need to make full use of this charger. The charger supports 100-240 VAC power input, so it can be used worldwide with the right plug adapters (sold separately).
