Watson C-VM-2C Overview

The Watson Pro Dual-Position V-Mount Battery Charger ensures you have fully charged V-mount lithium-ion batteries for your studio or on-location lighting, cameras, recorders, and monitors. With no need for special equipment, simply plug the charger into any available power outlet. It can simultaneously charge two V-mount batteries, delivering 16.8V at 3A.

Constructed from sturdy solid metal, it's durable for transportation, and heat dissipation louvers prevent delays from automatic overheating shutdowns. Its stable base allows for standalone use, while rubber feet prevent surface damage. Clear indicator LEDs signal when batteries are fully charged. Moreover, the charger incorporates built-in protections against overvoltage, overcurrent, short-circuits, and temperature fluctuations, safeguarding your valuable V-mount batteries from potential damage due to mishaps, power surges, or spikes.

V-Mount Battery Charging
You'll never be without V-mount power through a long day's shoot when you bring the Watson Pro C-VM-2C with you. Just plug it into an available outlet, and it quietly recharges any two V-mount batteries while you work.
Dual Output
The charger outputs 16.8V, 3A on each channel, so adding a second battery to the charger won't slow down the charging process. And unlike sequential chargers, both batteries receive the same current and recharge at the same rate.
Metal Construction
The metal construction, along with the built-in heat louvers, effectively dissipates heat and prevents overheating that can cause charging delays. Metal construction is also good for travel because it will withstand the bumps and dings that come along with transporting your gear to a location.
Stable Base
Just plug it in, set it down on a flat surface, and forget about it. The wide base is stable even when only one battery is attached. It comes with rubber feet in case you don't want to scratch or damage a nice table or desktop.
Indicator LEDs
The charger is designed for simplicity, right down to the indicator LEDs. There's one LED per channel, and it changes color when the battery is fully charged and ready to go.
Protective Circuitry
Built-in circuitry protects against overcurrent, overvoltage, overheating, and short circuits. Your valuable batteries will not be damaged during charging, even if you're hit with a power surge or spike.
Carry Handle
If you need to move the charger out of the way or to a better place without interfering with the charging, you can use the convenient handle to pick it up and move it.

I’ve had my eye on this v-mount charger for sometime now because I could tell that it was well built (metal body) and the design allows for it to not tip over when having different size batteries attached (see picture). I also really like the small metal handle.  This charger looks and feels very premium.  I've found that it charges my batteries just as fast as my previous charger and travels well. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

Is this charger fanless? I just received mine and it's completely silent. The description mentions it's quiet and has heat louvers, but not about it being silent. Just want to make sure it's working properly!
Asked by: JUSTIN
Yes, the Watson Dual-Position Compact V-Mount Charger has a fanless design and a quiet on-set charger. The metal construction, along with the built-in heat louvers, effectively dissipates heat and prevents overheating that can cause charging delays.
