High-capacity V-mount battery for Canon cinema
The Kastar BP-A100 is a 98 Wh lithium-ion battery designed as a direct replacement for the Canon BP-A series including the BP-A30, BP-A60, BP-A65, BP-A68 and BP-A90. It fits Canon cinema camcorders such as the XF605, XF705 and the EOS C200 through C700 series, delivering 14.4 V output for extended shooting sessions.
98 Wh capacity with 100 W D-tap output
The single specification that decides compatibility is the 98 Wh energy rating combined with a V-mount interface, matching the Canon BP-A form factor. Two D-tap ports supply DC 11–16.8 V for accessories up to 100 W total, while a USB port provides 5 V at 2.1 A for mobile devices. Four LEDs show remaining capacity at a glance.
Simple V-mount swap, watch D-tap polarity
Installation is a straight V-mount slide onto the camera or plate; no tools are required. The battery charges on Canon CG-A10 or CG-A20 chargers. The main pitfall is reversing polarity on the D-tap ports when powering accessories — always confirm the pin-out before connecting monitors or lights. Built-in protection guards against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating.

Questions about this item
How long will the 98 Wh rating actually run my Canon cinema camera?
The 98 Wh capacity equals 6800 mAh at 14.4 V, giving roughly twice the runtime of a 30 Wh BP-A30 pack on the same camera body.
What does the 100 W D-tap limit mean for powering accessories?
Each D-tap port can deliver up to 100 W total, so you can run a monitor and light simultaneously as long as their combined draw stays below that ceiling.
Will the 3-by-2-by-3-inch case fit the battery compartment on my XF705?
Yes, the BP-A100 is a direct mechanical replacement for the Canon BP-A series, so it slides into the XF705 and other listed cameras without adapters.
