Not long ago, Anton Bauer released their Dionic 26V Gold Mount Plus Batteries for power-hungry cine cameras and lights.

Ahh, it’s the holidays. Time for warm clothes, good food, and figuring out what to get your relative or friend who has an affinity for filmmaking. Looking at film and video equipment from the outside is confusing. It’s sometimes even confusing to those of us who make a living with film and video, so I can’t imagine what every-day folk are thinking. I’m also not saying that you shouldn’t get them the lens replica

Anton/Bauer announces a new lineup of Titon SL and Dionic 26V lithium-ion batteries, as well as battery plates and chargers in Gold Mount, V-Mount, and Gold Mount Plus. The new Titon SL batteries are suitable for powering DSLR, mirrorless, and LED fixtures, as well as powering Digital Cine cameras supporting a continuous 10A draw and 12.5A for up to 5 seconds. Titon SL batteries are smaller and lighter than the preceding Digital series batteries, yet do not sacrifice performance.
The Titon batteries, from Anton Bauer, are an interesting release because they’re entry-level models, yet they have nothing but top features. They were designed without any buttons or an LED gauge, so they can be offered at an accommodating cost. That’s how they were introduced at NAB 2019. Non-essential features were removed to achieve this. But at the same time, they have a 10A output, intelligent algorithm, P-Tap and USB ports, and one of the widest operating temperatures ever. They also feature 1,000 charge/discharge cycles, a large LCD,
The last time we heard from Anton Bauer about new batteries was when the company released its CINE series, and the Digital series before that. Those batteries were introduced with advances in power and function, as well as with aesthetic redesigns. But the famed Anton Bauer Dionic batteries, which for years were among the top models in the industry, saw no upgrades nor much spotlight the entire time, although they continued to be made and sold year after year. And now their time has come. Today, Anton Bauer announced the
The Core SWX Fleet Micro battery charger is named so, not because it’s particularly fast at charging (although it is), but because it is ready to charge and maximize your personal fleet of professional V-mount or Gold-mount batteries.
Perspective
In the 1980s, I had an old Cine 60 battery belt. It had a 4-pin XLR output, used NiCd cells, and had a built-in overnight charger. My cat used to sleep in it when it was charging during the winter because it was the warmest place in the house. Battery cell technology has come a long way since then,
Steven Gladstone, from B&H, interviews Kieran Foster, of Vitec Videocom, about the company's new Sachtler-branded Anton Bauer batteries with V-mounts, which offer 1,000 charge/discharge cycles and are available in 90W, 150W, and 190W sizes. Anton Bauer also offers a new Performance Charger in dual and quad configurations. With their honeycomb safety design, these batteries ensure that cell malfunction does not affect adjacent cells. Watch to see how this and other design elements contribute to better battery life.
