Costs too much to have questions like this

The battery pack arrived with a 1/2 charge. Tried charging it to full cap (12 hrs) and it wouldn't go past what it had when it arrived. The battery has a memory and according to instructions it needs to be discharged fully before it can be charged to full cap. Don't know how to fully discharge it besides using it so I don't know long I can use it before it gets to have a full charge. LEDs on the side show charge level. Costs too much to have questions like this.

Serves its purpose

I use this to power my 5d mark iii. I have it mounted to my rails and I pop the whole rig off and put it on my sticks as well. I wish the power connection on the bottom was a more sturdy. I could see the plastic tabs breaking off. That is really my only complaint. I've also only used it for a few jobs so far. It's nice not having to pop batteries in and out every hour or so while shooting video. The p-tap on the side also powers my AC-7 monitor. I also love the fact you can shoot time lapse for as long as you like without worrying about the power.

Works as it should.

Does what it's supposed to do. Charges my battery pack.

The capper saves the day

This is a must have addition to the Switronic battery. It allows for hook up to the BMCC camera and extends the shooting time for up to 5 hours.
