Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation: Attach the V-mount plate to your 15mm rod system using the included rod clamp. Align the V-mount battery with the plate, slide it into position until you hear a mechanical click, and verify the safety lock is engaged.
Compatibility: The unit is compatible with any standard V-mount setup and supports high-draw devices requiring up to 100W via PD or D-Tap.
Care: Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Avoid deep discharges; aim to recharge before the battery hits 0% to prolong cell health. Clean the scratch-resistant screen with a soft, microfiber cloth. Periodically inspect the V-mount pins for debris to ensure a stable connection.
