Thank you for your purchase of the ProMaster 8046 Compact V-Mount Battery Kit 95 Wh. The battery
works with standard V-Mount / V-Lock cameras and accessories. It has a D-Tap port for both charging
and power output. It also has a USB output port for charging compatible devices. A compatible D-Tap
charger is included with this kit for your convenience. The battery has an on-board LED fuel level gauge
so you can quickly check the remaining capacity with the touch of a button.
Charging:
The charger comes in two parts. Begin by connecting the AC power cord to the transformer using the
figure 8 style 2-pin connector found on both parts. Next, pry open the cover over the D-Tap power
outlet on the battery. Pay close attention to the + and – symbols on the cover to be sure you
understand the polarity of the pins. Now connect the D-Tap end of the charger cable to the port on the
battery. Watch the + and – symbols on the end of the charger cable and match those with the port. Be
sure not to reverse the polarity! Finally, connect the two-prong wall-AC end of the charging unit to a
standard household outlet.
Use
:
The battery is compatible with any V-Mount device which has a maximum continuous draw of 6A or
less. The D-Tap port can be used simultaneous to the V-Mount power connection. For USB devices use
the USB port on the battery similarly to that of a common power bank. Open the cover and connect
your charging cable. This port has a maximum output of 5V at 2.1A. You can use it simultaneously to
the other ports on the battery. Keep in mind, the maximum, total, continuous draw is 6A for the
battery at one time among all connections. If you exceed the max draw, some devices may not
function properly.
To check the battery’s remaining capacity, simply press the small, round button on the side, just below
the 4 LED lights. If all 4 lights illuminate the battery is fully charged. 3 lights illuminated indicates
approximately 75% remaining capacity, and so on and so forth.
Tips for use:
1.
V-Mount batteries come in a variety of capacities and maximum draws. This unit is designed to
strike a balance among power, compact size, light weight, and versatility. At 95Wh it is a perfect
travel companion and should be within carry-on regulations for most airline flights. However,
be sure to check with your airline before traveling.
