The SmallRig 5697 kit includes two high-performance EN-EL15c camera batteries and a portable dual-channel fast charger. It uses a full decoding chip to maintain full compatibility with Nikon EN-EL15c batteries. As a result, it prevents pop-up warnings, supports in-camera power display, and remains compatible with your camera’s original charger.
The charging case holds two batteries and fits comfortably in your palm, making it ideal for on-the-go use. It protects and organizes your batteries while you travel between shoots, and its compact size makes it simple to pack in your camera bag.
The charger features a dual-channel design that lets you charge two batteries at once or charge a single battery when needed. This flexibility helps you maintain workflow efficiency because you can top up one battery quickly or fully charge both before a shoot.
The kit includes an 18W USB-C fast charging port. Using this port, the charger can fully charge two batteries in approximately 2.5 hours, significantly shortening downtime between shoots. The kit also ships with a fast-charging USB-C cable for immediate use with compatible power sources.
A high-definition display shows the battery level for each charging channel. It continues to indicate charge status even when the charger is disconnected from power, so you always know remaining capacity. When battery levels fall critically low, the battery icon flashes to alert you before a shoot is interrupted.
The charger uses intelligent circuitry with multiple safety protections. It monitors temperature and voltage, automatically slowing charging during overheating and cutting off power in case of overvoltage. Near full capacity, it switches to trickle charging to preserve battery health.
The included fast-charging cable makes the charger compatible with wall adapters, car chargers, and power banks. For best results, the manufacturer recommends using a power adapter with 18W or higher output.
