  • Power extended shoots from any USB-C source
  • Works with Lumix DC-S1 and S1R mirrorless cameras

  • Pair with ZILR NP-F970 USB-C PD battery for high-capacity supply

Power without swapping

This USB-C dummy battery replaces the Panasonic DMW-DCC16 pack in Lumix DC-S1 and S1R mirrorless cameras. It draws power from any USB-C source so you can keep shooting without opening the battery door. The coupler is built for photographers and videographers who need continuous operation during long sessions. Condition is new.

Build integration

The dummy unit sits inside the camera’s existing battery compartment and connects to an external USB-C PD supply such as a laptop, power bank or the ZILR NP-F970 USB-C PD battery. No internal modification or additional adapter is required. It frees you from carrying spare proprietary packs and from the downtime of swapping them. The camera receives power directly through the USB-C link.

Bundled utility

The package includes the dummy battery coupler only; no USB-C cable or power source is supplied. Pairing it with a compatible USB-C PD charger or the matching ZILR NP-F970 battery enables extended recording time for time-lapses, video work or studio tethering. Without a PD-capable source the coupler cannot deliver power.

Questions about this item

How long can the dummy battery sustain continuous recording before the camera shuts down?

It draws power from a USB-C PD source such as the ZILR NP-F970 battery, so recording time is limited only by the external pack capacity and the camera's own thermal limits.

Does the coupler or cable become warm when the camera runs all day?

The adapter itself has no active electronics and stays near ambient temperature; any warmth comes from the camera body or the external USB-C PD power bank during prolonged use.

Which USB-C power source must I already own to use this dummy battery?

A USB-C Power Delivery supply such as the ZILR NP-F970 (ZRNPB01) or any PD-capable power bank, laptop port or wall charger that negotiates the voltage your camera requires.
