Kastar BP-A100 4-pack with dual D-Tap charger

This kit supplies four 98 Wh lithium-ion batteries and a dual D-Tap charger that powers two units at once. The charger accepts worldwide AC 110-240 V input and delivers up to 16.8 V 4.0 A on a single channel or 16.8 V 2 A per channel when both bays are occupied. A 4-pin XLR adapter lets the charger feed a compatible camcorder or DSLR directly.

Suitable uses and limits

Camera operators running Canon EOS C200, C300 Mark II, C300 Mark III, C500, C500 Mark II, C70, C700, XF605 or XF705 bodies gain hot-swap capacity and on-set USB charging for phones or tablets. The bundle does not serve owners of cameras that use non-BP-A battery mounts or productions needing more than four packs for continuous all-day shooting.

Deciding specification

Each battery stores 98 Wh at 14.4 V (6800 mAh) and exposes two D-Tap ports plus a USB-A port limited to 5 V 2.1 A; the charger’s maximum single-channel output is 16.8 V 4.0 A.

Questions about this item

How long will the 98 Wh rating actually run a cinema camera?

The 98 Wh capacity at 14.4 V delivers 6800 mAh; run-time depends on the camera’s power draw, so a C300 Mark III drawing 50 W would run roughly two hours on one battery.

What does the D-Tap interface on the charger actually limit?

Each D-Tap channel outputs 16.8 V at 2 A when both are used, or 4 A on a single channel, capping charge speed to those currents.

What clearance does the 6.5×3×2 inch pack need to mount on a rig?

The four batteries and dual charger together measure 6.5 by 3 by 2 inches, so allow at least that footprint plus cable bend radius for D-Tap and XLR leads.
