Watson Pro 4 x High-Draw 158Wh Slim Batteries & Dual Charger V-Mount Kit

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).

The Watson Pro 14.4V 158Wh Slim Li-Ion Battery, in a V-mount, provides up to a 12A draw, enough to power the most demanding cameras, lights, and studio setups. It also features a 12V, 10A D-Tap output for powering monitors, transmitters, and other gear and accessories simultaneously with your main load.

The 158Wh capacity provides approximately 4 hours of runtime for a load of 35W. A 5-LED gauge on the side indicates remaining battery life at the press of a button below the LEDs. When capacity drops under 9%, the bottom LED automatically begins blinking as a warning. For safety, built-in intelligent circuitry shuts down the battery in case of high current, low voltage, extreme temperatures, or possible short circuits, protecting both your battery and gear.

All this is offered in a relatively slim design with ergonomic grips on the sides that allow for more comfortable handling. The VM-160-SE is rechargeable using any Watson Pro V-mount charger.
