Kastar BN-VC296G 2-pack battery and dual charger

This set includes two 10500mAh lithium-ion batteries and an LCD dual fast charger. It is built for owners of JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 series camcorders who need reliable spare power. The kit replaces original JVC BN-VC296G and BN-VC264G cells and works with AA-VC20 chargers.

Charger input and output specification

The charger accepts 5V at 2-3A through Micro-USB or Type-C ports, delivering 15W maximum input. It outputs 4.2V at 800mA per slot and can charge both batteries simultaneously. An LCD panel shows real-time charging status and remaining capacity for each cell.

77.7 Wh capacity for extended shoots

Each 7.4V 10500mAh battery stores 77.7 Wh, giving a single camcorder hours of 4K recording time. Two packs allow hot-swapping during long events without AC access. Runtime drops with continuous high-bitrate 4K or cold temperatures, so a third pack may be needed for all-day productions.
