Kastar BN-VC296G battery and LTD2 charger kit

This kit pairs a 7.4V 10500mAh lithium-ion battery with a dual-slot USB charger. It is intended for operators of JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 series camcorders who need extended run time and the ability to recharge two packs from a single power source.

Check camcorder model

Verify that your camcorder is one of the listed GY-HC500 or GY-HC550 variants and that you use the original JVC BN-VC296G or BN-VC264G battery form factor. The charger requires a 5V 2-3A USB supply delivering 15W through either its Micro-USB or Type-C input; a Micro-USB cable is included.

Compact charger with swappable plates and LED status

The charger measures 5 by 3 by 2 inches and accepts interchangeable plates to support additional battery types beyond the included pack. Each slot delivers 8.4V at 800mA whether charging one or two batteries simultaneously. An integrated LCD shows real-time charging progress and remaining capacity for each cell.

Questions about this item

What comes in the pack and do I need to buy any cables or plates separately?

The pack contains one BN-VC296G 10500mAh battery and one LTD2 dual charger. A Micro-USB cable is included; the charger accepts Micro-USB or Type-C input from any 5V 2-3A source. The charger uses interchangeable plates — the plate for JVC BN-VC264G/BN-VC296G batteries is fitted.

Should I choose the 77.7Wh version or a lower-capacity alternative for my GY-HC500?

This bundle supplies the 77.7Wh (10500mAh) BN-VC296G battery, the highest-capacity option listed for the GY-HC500/550 series. The charger also accepts the lower-capacity BN-VC264G plate if you later want a lighter spare.

What does the 77.7Wh rating mean for actual recording time on a GY-HC550?

At 7.4V the battery stores 77.7Wh. The charger delivers 8.4V at 800mA per slot, so a full charge takes several hours. Runtime depends on the camcorder’s power draw; the 77.7Wh capacity is the figure to compare against the camera’s rated consumption.
