1. Introduction

1.7

The batteries feature built-in D-Tap outputs (12V) and a replaceable
USB output unit (5V 2A) that can be swapped for Lemo, Hirose or
D-Tap output units, already available for the Gold Mount PowerHub.

1.8

These smaller, lighter batteries allow you to control the capacity and
weight of your power source to suit the application: 1 battery is ideal
for handheld applications, 2 or more linked batteries provide longer
run-time or an increased current draw of up to 12A, ideal for
powering multiple accessories. Current is delivered using superior,
high-current pin contacts.

1.9

PAGlink allows seamless hot-swapping for continuous power, or the
ability to add another battery just to keep shooting, which means no
more time-wasting camera reboots.

1.10

Simultaneous discharge from linked batteries means no dead weight
on your camera. Sharing the current load extends overall battery life
to provide a better return on investment. Both the MPL50 and MPL99
batteries are guaranteed for 2 years.

1.11

The PAGlink technology will automatically select the most suitable
batteries for discharge, according to their charge status. Batteries do
not discharge into each other. The system ensures that the maximum
linked output is kept to a safe level.

1.12

The intelligent PAGlink batteries manage their own charging safely
and efficiently, and can be charged, whilst linked, using other
reputable manufacturer’s Li-Ion chargers. They are compatible with
PAGlink and Anton/Bauer chargers for maximum versatility and
economic integration.
