Four-pack lithium-ion replacement batteries

This pack supplies four Kastar NP-F980 EXP lithium-ion cells, each rated at 7.4 volts and 8700 milliampere-hours for a total of 64.4 watt-hours. They are built as direct replacements for the Sony NP-F series used in Handycam camcorders and compatible LED video lights. The pack targets videographers who need multiple spares for full-day shoots without carrying a charger.

Sustained output with on-board USB charging

Each cell includes a micro-USB input that accepts a 5 volt 2 amp adapter so the battery can be topped up from a wall outlet or power bank while on location. A 5 volt 2.1 amp USB output lets the same battery act as a power bank for phones or accessories. Four LED indicators show remaining capacity at a glance, and the internal protection circuit guards against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating during extended use.

Not for cameras outside the listed NP-F

The supplier lists a specific range of Sony CCD-TRV, DCR-TR and Handycam models plus named LED panels such as the CN, VL, YN and GVM series. Buyers whose equipment uses a different battery mount or voltage should verify fitment before purchasing.
