Kastar BN-VC296G battery and LTD2 dual charger

The Kastar BN-VC296G is a 10500mAh 77.7Wh lithium-ion battery paired with an LTD2 USB dual charger. It is designed for operators using JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 series camcorders who need reliable power and the ability to charge two batteries simultaneously from a single USB source.

Fits JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 camcorders

The battery replaces JVC BN-VC264G and BN-VC296G packs and works with the original AA-VC20 charger series. The LTD2 charger accepts Micro-USB or USB Type-C input at 5V 2-3A 15W, freeing you from proprietary AC adapters and allowing power from USB-C PD banks or laptop ports while on location.

10500mAh capacity with dual 800mA charge outputs

The 7.4V 10500mAh cell delivers 77.7Wh of energy for extended 4K recording sessions on compatible JVC handheld camcorders. The charger outputs 8.4V at 800mA per bay when charging two batteries together, so a full dual charge takes several hours; the LCD display shows real-time capacity percentage so you can judge remaining headroom before the next shoot.
