SmallRig Pro Series 99Wh V-Mount Battery

At IBC 2023 in Amsterdam, SmallRig was showing a yet-to-be-released new addition to its battery lineup. SmallRig is calling these their Pro Series batteries, and unlike the standard version, they feature an aluminum chassis for greater durability and some improvements when it comes to the powering outputs.

The new battery also features a full-color display on the front as well as additional USB-C input. That means that there are now two USB-C inputs, a D-tap, and a USB-A input, as well as 8V and 12V DC inputs.

The battery should be available soon for around $300 USD.
