FAQ

Question: How long will this battery run my light or camera?
Answer: Runtime depends on the power draw of your fixture or camera. Because the battery supplies up to 12A at 26V and has a 230Wh capacity, higher‑power fixtures will consume charge faster. For a precise estimate, compare your equipment's wattage to the battery's 230Wh capacity.

Question: Which charger should I use to charge this battery?
Answer: Use a separately available 26V charger compatible with Nanlite V‑Mount batteries. Nanlite lists a single charger model (BT‑CGV‑26V‑1) and a dual‑bay option (BT‑CGV‑26V‑1) as compatible. Chargers are sold separately and provide the correct 26V charging interface for safe charging.

Question: Can I use this battery in extreme temperatures or store it safely between shoots?
Answer: The battery is specified to work between -20°C and +55°C (-4°F to 131°F). For storage and long life, follow general Li‑Ion best practices and avoid exposing the battery to temperatures outside that range.

Question: How do I check the remaining charge on the battery?
Answer: The battery features a 4‑level LED power indicator. Use these LEDs to get a quick visual estimate of remaining charge before or during use, which helps plan swaps or recharging on set.
