LightPro LP-BP 230NE 230wh Li-ion V-Lock / VLock Battery with 5v USB

LightPro LP-BP 230NE 230Wh V-Mount Battery - Unrelenting High-Capacity Power

Engineered for uncompromising stamina on set, the LightPro LP-BP 230NE is a robust 230Wh lithium-ion V-Mount battery designed to drive power-hungry cinema cameras and high-output LED fixtures through the longest production days.

Built for the Demands of Modern Production

In modern cinema and video production, continuous uptime is non-negotiable. As camera rigs grow more complex—powering wireless video transmitters, heavily rigged monitor solutions, and multi-channel audio receivers alongside the main cinema body—standard batteries simply cannot handle the aggressive power draw. The LightPro LP-BP 230NE acts as the powerhouse for these advanced configurations, delivering a massive 230 Watt-hour capacity and a steady 12A continuous output limit. This ensures that high-draw platforms and bright continuous LED panels remain operational without triggering unexpected cutoffs or voltage drops, saving critical time on set.

Beyond sheer capacity, intelligent power distribution is vital for a streamlined rig. This V-Lock power solution is equipped with a versatile 14.8V D-Tap output, empowering operators to strip away excess battery plates and run secondary accessories—such as follow focus motors and external monitors—directly from the primary power source. An additional 5V USB output further expands utility, keeping tablets, smartphones, and smaller USB-powered practical lights continuously charged in the field.

Safety and reliability form the foundation of any professional power ecosystem. The LP-BP 230NE utilizes high-grade lithium-ion cells with zero memory effect, ensuring you never lose maximum charge capacity regardless of when it is cycled. Integrated intelligent protection circuits actively manage extreme thermal conditions, excessive current draw, and over-voltage risks. Note that due to its massive 230Wh reserve, this battery exceeds commercial airline travel limits (which typically cap out at 160Wh), making it a dedicated workhorse for localized, high-end studio or location productions.

Production FAQ

• Can I fly on commercial airlines with this battery?

  Due to standard aviation regulations capping lithium-ion batteries at 160Wh, the massive 230Wh capacity of the LP-BP 230NE means it is strictly restricted to ground transport and localized production use.

• Will this reliably power a 150W LED panel at 100% intensity?

  Yes, the battery is rated for a continuous 150W maximum output power and a 12A maximum draw, handling high-output LED panels without voltage sagging or thermal shutdown.

• Can I power my camera body and accessories simultaneously?

  Absolutely. By utilizing the V-Mount for the camera and the integrated 14.8V D-Tap port for peripherals like monitors or wireless transmitters, you can seamlessly power an entire rigged configuration from this single source.

• Is there any risk of battery memory effect if I charge it before it fully depletes?

  No. The advanced lithium-ion cells inside the LP-BP 230NE feature zero memory effect, allowing you to top-off the battery at any charge state without compromising its long-term maximum capacity.
