Lead Acid Battery Belt
12 Volt (170 Watt/hour) for semi/pro video and other uses
Battery Belt model LA1214
| Ideal for economically powering
12 Volt lights for video & television or other devices
(powers a 30 watt light for about 5 hours).
|
|
 |
Features:
Absorbed glass mat (AGM) paste (not liquid)
sealed lead acid battery belts for use by video & television
producers, camera persons & others, to power 12 Volt DC
lights, cameras, monitors, VCRs, audio mixers, etc., or to
power 117 Volt AC devices using an inverter. |
Substantially less expensive than nickel cadmium battery
belts, with nearly as much life expectancy (when recharged
shortly after use) & far more power (4X) for the money.
You can purchase two 14 Amp/hour sealed lead acid battery
belts & one fast charger (which should last all day in
most applications), for about the same price as one of our
competitors 7 Amp/hour NiCad belts with slow charger (which
may not get you through the day in some applications). Fast
charge one of our sealed lead acid battery belts, while using
the other & never run out of power. Ideal for News gathering,
corporate, or Event type videography where an on camera sun
gun light is needed frequently through the day. |
| Each battery is completely sealed (will not leak) & has
a good looking heavy padded case for additional protection from
heavy hits & for comfort. |
Heavy duty 11 gauge power cable of 1 meters (over 3 feet),
fitted with a professional
4 pin female XLR connector
& fused for safety (spare fuse also included). Heavy duty
cable means almost no Voltage drop across the cable on heavy
loads, hence some devices don't turn off prematurely, you don't
waste power heating up the cable & you get all the power
the battery is capable of delivering. |
| Ability to fast charge or discharge up to 40% or more of their
rated capacity (full recharge in about 3 hours with proper
intelligent charger). |
| Not damaged by freezing. Operating temperature range -20C
(-4F) to 50C (122F). |
| Low self discharge rate, 3% per month at 25C (77F). |
| No memory problem. |
| Adjustable waste belt with quick
release clip fastener
(see pictures of 14 & 20 Amp/hour belts below) & safety
shoulder strap included (stored in pocket). |
Battery belts currently available in 14
& 20 Amp/hour sizes (see pictures below)
& shoulder carrying case batteries available in
7 & 10 Amp/hour sizes (using
same case, but no waist belt).
