Newell BP-4CH Four-channel Charger for V-Mount Batteries Summary

The Newell BP-4CH 4-channel charger for V-mount video camera batteries is a professional device that allows you to quickly and conveniently top up the power of cells that are widely used in the film and photography industry.

Regardless of the capacity and number of batteries you’re using, at some point you’re going to need to recharge them. This is where Newell’s BP-4CH V-Mount battery charger comes to the rescue as a professional charger that protects your cells to ensure maximum life. The station equipped with a comfortable handle and folding legs can also serve as a power bank, to which you can connect a 4-pin XLR cable. This standard is used in professional film cameras.

4 charging channels

The Newell BP-4CH charger is equipped with 4 V-mount slots allowing you to charge your batteries quickly and conveniently. By using advanced MCU controllers, the device will provide your cells with maximum life. The manufacturer has also taken care of appropriate protection systems. Thanks to them, the batteries will be protected against overcharging and overheating. This ensures not only safety for your equipment, but also the environment in which you use the charger and V-mount cells.

Power your devices with multiple batteries

Looking for a way to extend the life of your film equipment? Or do you work in a location with difficult access to a power source? Use the “DC Out” output and power your camera directly from the charger into which the V-mount batteries are plugged. Simply connect the device using the included 4-pin XLR cable. This is ideal for demanding filmmakers who don’t always have enough for 1 fully charged V-mount battery.

Full operation control

The Newell charger has an easy-to-read indicator system based on LED lights. A green light indicates a fully charged battery, and a yellow light indicates reaching 85% power. This system makes it easy to use the device and control the charging process. Similar indicators have also been prepared for the process of discharging the batteries and powering them with other devices using the included XLR cable.

Folding legs

When charging batteries on a film or photo set, it’s not hard to accidentally snag a cord or get lost and knock over the charger. That’s why the Newell BP-4CH is equipped with special folding feet. Although even without the folding feet it’s really difficult to tip the charger over, using them ensures stability and safety, no matter how many V-mount batteries you’re charging at any given time! Not forgotten are the rubber pads, which are perfect for smooth or slippery surfaces.

Convenient transport

Thanks to the ergonomic handle, you can conveniently grab the charger at any time and move it to any place. You will certainly appreciate this solution when you have 4 V-mount batteries clipped into the Newell BP-4CH. Such a set may weigh something, but carrying the charger by the handle, with the weight evenly distributed, you won’t feel it at all!

When you buy Newell brand products you choose years of experience backed by thousands of positive reviews from satisfied customers, including both professionals and amateurs of photography and film.
