Kastar BN-VC296G 4-pack for JVC camcorders

This set includes four lithium-ion batteries and one dual LCD charger built for JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 series camcorders. Each battery stores 10500 mAh at 7.4 V, giving 77.7 Wh of capacity. The charger powers two cells simultaneously and accepts Micro-USB or USB-C input at 5 V, 2–3 A.

Video crews needing spare power for long shoots

Operators who rely on JVC BN-VC264G or BN-VC296G cells will find direct compatibility. The kit does not serve cameras outside the listed JVC models, and it cannot charge more than two batteries at once. Buyers who need higher capacity per cell or a charger with more bays should look elsewhere.

10500 mAh per battery at 7.4 V

This capacity determines how long a compatible camcorder runs on a single charge. The dual charger delivers 800 mA to each slot and shows real-time status on its LCD screen. If your workflow demands more runtime per battery or faster multi-cell charging, this specification will not meet the need.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the 15 W charger draw when running all day?

The charger accepts 5 V at 2–3 A for a maximum 15 W input, so continuous operation stays at low heat and modest power draw.

Which JVC camcorder models must I already own for the BN-VC296G batteries to work?

Compatible cameras include the GY-HC500, GY-HC500E, GY-HC500U, GY-HC500UN, GY-HC500SPC, GY-HC500SPCN, GY-HC550, GY-HC550E and GY-HC550UN.

Will the dual charger still charge my older JVC BN-VC264G batteries alongside the new BN-VC296G cells?

Yes — the charger supports both BN-VC296G and BN-VC264G packs and can charge two batteries simultaneously.
