Description

Dynacore D-4BS/A Battery Extender

The Dynacore D-4BS/A Battery Extender (also known as D-4B-V or D-4B-A) is a sophisticated multi-battery adapter plate designed to significantly extend the runtime of high-power cinema cameras, lighting fixtures, and other demanding equipment. It offers a solution for hot-swapping batteries and ensuring continuous power during long shoots.

The Dynacore D-4BS/A Battery Extender is a robust and intelligent 4-bay battery plate available with either V-mount (D-4BS) or Gold Mount (D-4BA) options. This versatile battery adapter allows users to mount up to four V-mount or Gold Mount batteries simultaneously, providing an enormous cumulative power capacity for extended operation.

A key feature of this battery extender is its ability to draw power from multiple batteries sequentially or proportionally, and to enable hot-swapping of depleted batteries without interrupting power to the connected device. This is crucial for maintaining continuous operation during critical takes or live broadcasts, preventing costly downtime.

The D-4BS/A typically provides multiple power outputs, which can include:

• A main regulated DC output (e.g., 28V or 48V via a PowerCON or XLR 3-pin output for high-power lighting fixtures like ARRI SkyPanels or Aputure Lights, or 14.8V via XLR 4-pin for cameras).
• Multiple D-Tap outputs (typically 14.8V) for powering a variety of onboard camera accessories such as monitors, wireless systems, and smaller LED lights.

Designed for heavy-duty professional use, the Dynacore D-4BS/A is built with a durable, all-metal construction. It often includes an intelligent LCD display for real-time monitoring of battery status, voltage, and remaining capacity, providing essential power management information. The unit typically incorporates various safety features, including over-current and short-circuit protection.

Whether you’re powering a high-draw cinema camera, a powerful LED panel, or a complex camera rig, the Dynacore D-4BS/A Battery Extender serves as an indispensable power hub that ensures uninterrupted operation and maximizes the efficiency of your professional battery fleet. It’s the ultimate long-run battery solution for demanding production environments.
