Tilta Hydra Alien V-Mount Battery Plate

This adapter allows you to adapt a Sony L Series battery plate (such as the one built into the various Z CAM cameras) to a V-mount battery plate.

This allows you to use the much greater battery life of a V-mount battery to power your camera setup, keeping battery swaps to a minimum.

This is also the perfect solution to power smaller accessories that traditionally use lower capacity L Series batteries such as smaller LED Light Panels or external monitors for focus stations.

The Type II version is designed to be more compact to put less stress on the Sony L-Series contact pins, but can interfere with some of the ports on Z CAM camera bodies.

We recommend Type I plates for users who foresee this being an issue.

This V-Mount Battery Plate is a lightweight solution for mounting full sized or micro V-Mount batteries to your camera system without adding the additional weight traditionally associated with larger battery plates.
This makes the Mini V-Mount Battery Plate a perfect option for powering accessories via higher capacity V-Mount batteries while still remaining light enough to stay within the weight limit of most gimbals.
The size of this plate also makes it a great choice for when you need to mount a V-Mount battery to a smaller camera body without adding unnecessary bulk.
The mounting options of this plate allow you to mount a V-mount battery plate in a variety of ways either via the optional 15mm Rod Adapter or via any of the 1/4″-20, M4, or M3.5 threads.
We also offer an optional Gimbal Ring Adapter that allows you to clamp this plate onto any 25mm or 30mm gimbal ring.
The optional 15mm LWS Rod Adapter allows you to mount your Mini and/or Pocket V-Mount Battery Plate to any 15mm LWS rod system which allows you to comfortably attach a V-mount battery to your setup.
** Note: This is only a mounting solution for a V-Mount battery — no power ports are included on the plate itself.

This battery plate attaches to the bottom of the Float System’s post to allow you to provide external power to your gimbal with two gold mount batteries while also providing some counter weight to the bottom end of the post for when you are attempting to balance against the weight of your gimbal/camera setup.

*The plate itself does not have any power outputs*
