Three-battery pack with dual LCD charger

This set includes three 7.4 V lithium-ion batteries rated at 10500 mAh and 77.7 Wh each, plus a charger that powers two cells simultaneously. It replaces JVC BN-VC264G and BN-VC296G packs for GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 camcorder series.

Charger limited to 800 mA per slot

The dual charger delivers 4.2 V at 800 mA per bay whether one or two batteries are inserted, so a full charge takes several hours. Input accepts 5 V at 2–3 A through Micro-USB or Type-C, but no faster rate is supported.

Interchangeable plate swaps for other JVC packs

The charger uses a swappable plate that also fits AA-VC20, AA-VC20E and AA-VC20U chargers, letting you charge different JVC batteries on the same base. A short Micro-USB cable is included; Type-C cable is not supplied.

Questions about this item

Should I buy the single pack or the 3-pack BN-VC296G kit?

The listing is a fixed 3-pack that includes one dual charger and three 10500mAh lithium-ion batteries, so there is no single-pack option to choose.

What does the 77.7 Wh rating mean for actual camcorder run-time?

At 7.4 V the 77.7 Wh cell delivers 10500 mAh, giving extended recording time on compatible JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 series camcorders.

How fast does the dual charger refill two BN-VC296G batteries?

The charger outputs 4.2 V at 800 mA per slot, so two batteries charge simultaneously at that rate from a 5 V 2-3 A USB-C or Micro-USB source.
