V-Type Plate with Powertap Port
The SWITRONIX V-Type Plate adds a Powertap output to compatible battery systems. It is built for camera operators who need to power accessories from a V-mount battery plate. The integrated 7.2V regulator supplies regulated voltage to Sony camcorders. This accessory suits professionals expanding on-set power options.
Replaces direct camcorder batteries
The plate replaces internal camcorder batteries by drawing power from a V-mount source through the Powertap port. The 48 inch cable provides flexible routing between the plate and the camera body. The jump is worth it when longer runtimes are required without swapping small internal packs. It is not suited for setups lacking a V-mount battery or Powertap-equipped power source.
