Compatible Power for JVC 4K Handhelds

The Kastar BN-VC296G kit supplies a 77.7 Wh lithium-ion cell and a dual-bay charger built for JVC GY-HC500 and GY-HC550 series cameras. It replaces the original BN-VC296G battery and AA-VC20 charger, giving solo shooters and small crews a ready-to-use spare power solution.

Sustained Output and Dual-Bay Charging

The 7.4 V 10500 mAh battery feeds the camera steadily during long takes, while the charger delivers 4.2 V at 800 mA per bay when both slots are occupied. Micro-USB and Type-C inputs accept a 5 V 2–3 A 15 W source, so the unit can run from common USB power adapters or high-capacity power banks during location work.

Modular Plates and LCD Status

Interchangeable charging plates let the dock adapt to other JVC battery models without buying a new charger. An integrated LCD shows real-time capacity and charging state for each bay, removing guesswork on set. The compact 5×3×2 inch form fits in a gear bag, though users needing more than two simultaneous charges will require an additional dock.
