This V-mount Helix Max 147Wh Lithium-Ion Dual-Voltage Battery from Core SWX expands upon the features of the Hypercore NEO series by adding simultaneous, 14 and 28V dual-voltage capabilities for a complete onboard system with high-voltage performance. A nearly lossless transmission and a maximum load of 20A at 16.8V or 10A at 33.6V makes this battery ideal for powering more demanding equipment builds in cine and broadcast applications.

The Helix Max draws minimal current at its maximum voltage, creating less heat and extending the runtime and longevity of the battery. A D-Tap aux output and USB output can power other accessories from monitors to mobile devices. Integrated into the battery’s design is an LCD screen to monitor the runtime and total battery percentage. Adding the separately available Helix hot-swap plate can double the available battery capacity and runtimes. The V-mount battery supports SMBus camera and charger communication.

Featuring four fast charge bays, this Mach4 4-Position Charger with 4A Rapid Charge is the next generation of smart chargers from Core SWX. The Mach4 is capable of charging four V-mount batteries with a fast 4A charge. It can charge four 98Wh batteries in approximately 1.5 hours at a rate of 4A per hour, which utilizes half the power used by previous models.

The charger is thinner than previous models at 3.15″ thick and weighs only 5 lb, making it even more portable when you are shooting in the field. It features red and green status LEDs to indicate charging and full status. Supporting 90-240 VAC input voltage, the Mach4 is worldwide compatible, the housing is made from durable aluminum, and it can be carried using its recessed carry handle.
