Questions & Answers

Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?ANDREW C : Great budget-friendly battery for the BMPCC's - have 6 total. The v-mount and quick release mounting options are super handy as well as the runtime readout and dual D-tap ports. I do a lot of run and gun filming and the low weight of these batteries while being able to power my monitor and camera together for hours at a time is a lifesaver.BRIAN C : Love these for my BMPCC 6k Pro! A great alternative to the endless parade of short life NPs...MICHAEL D : already have one. Need moreJUMEKO J : Great for extra battery lifeBRANDON P : I currently own one and need an additional backup battery for longer shoots.

Feels like it?s limited on usage.

For its size, it sucks that it?s only 47wh. Great for pocket cameras and mounting on the bottom of the camera for small run n gun builds. Not a product recommended for professionals, but great for passion/hobbyists. Although, this is actually great for leaving on my camera cart to charge phones. Two USB ports are a nice touch for that very reason!

Power drain issues

Even in sleep mode, this battery pack loses power and is not worth the risk for lengthy off the grid filming.

Works like a charm!

Used this with my brand new BMPCC 6k Pro, and it was a snap! Easily tripled the battery life of the battery that came with the camera. It?s all about peace of mind.

An essential purchase!

This battery was an essential purchase for my bmpcc 6k. It’s durable, reliable, and sturdy. I was worried it would feel awkward underneath my camera with a SmallRig attached but it worked out perfectly. In fact, the extra weight on my camera helped me with having a more steady hand when shooting handheld footage.

Core SWX PowerBase for BM Pocket 6K

We used this for our BM Pocket 6K, and it was great! The 6K is pretty power hungry, but we were still able to get 2.5 - 3 hours of battery life!

Excellent battery solution for your BMPCC!

Wow! This is the perfect match for your BMPCC and monitor. I get almost four hours of run time on my 4K. The quick connection to the plate works great and there is no play at all. It feels solid and only ways 1 lb. I will be picking up another one of these soon for long day shoots,

An absolute must buy

Absolutely love this Powerbase. You can attach it to the base of many things that are already in the arsenal like the DJI Ronin S, shoulder and tripod. I rarely use the batteries for my GH5 or Blackmagic. I have this and get many hours. I get about 3 and half to 4 hours on the BlackMagic and about 9 hours using it with my GH5

Power in a brick

The Core SWX PowerBase EDGE is a definite accessory if your using the BMPC6K because the battery life on the standard battery is like 20 mins. on a good day. The EDGE will supply you with around 3 hours of power. I just did a 5 hour shoot and the battery lasted almost the entire day. It does add about 1lb or more on the the weight of to the camera so hand held would get old quick. Two things to note is it does take about 2.5 hours to charge the battery up fully. Also I noticed that the battery lost about 20% of power over 4 days just sitting there not connected to anything so make sure you charge it a day before you use it.

Maybe the lightest weight V-Mount Battery ?

We love it. We use a Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera 6k on a Ronin MX gimbal/stabilizer. We attach this battery to the Ronin and power the camera, follow-focus, and monitor.. It's light enough that it doesn't interfere with the operation of the Ronin and it's a beautiful thing not to have to constantly fiddle with multiple batteries for the various devices..

Decent battery solution if you can get it for cheap.

It is a little unwieldy and the price point is a bit high considering it is a low powered v mount but it is a good solution for now.

I can't imagine using a BMPCC4k without it

This should be listed as a essential for BMPCC 4K, I am very pleased that Adorama sells it as a kit. This seems expensive just as a battery, but it will replace buying a v mount battery plate, and hardware to attach the plate and keep your setup lighter. Besides the standard v-mount, this also has it's own quick release attachment adapter so you can easily remove the battery from the camera when not in use.

Love it, wish I had more a long time ago

By Derek H.

I love the versatility of this product and the fact that it's super light!!! I would have converted to these a long time ago had I known how light they are.

PB-Edge for Blackmagic Design Pocket 6K Pro. It comes with p-tap charger and adapter cable.

Versatility
The Edge is the "swiss army knife" of battery packs. It can be used as a standard v-mount pack, an under-camera mounted small-form cine pack, mounted under a handheld gimbal, as well as many other uses.

The pack is outfitted with a 7.4v port for most mirrorless camera power demands, as well as two USBs 5v outputs, and two 14v powertap outputs, covering nearly all video production powering applications.

Extended Runtime
Comparing to small form cine and mirrorless camera battery packs, the Powerbase Edge can provide up to 5x the power of those packs. Normal operational runtime on a Sony Alpha or Panasonic GH camera can exceed 8hrs, perfect for an all day shoot.

Runtime LCD

Normal Run Time
Backlit Display Shows Nominal Run-Time (25w load), Percentage, and Grid when in standby

Remain Run Time
Backlit Display Shows Remaining Runtime, Percentage, and Grid when under draw

Remain CHG Time
Backlit Display Shows Remaining Charge time, Percentage, and Grid when charging

Quick Release Plate
The Edge is outfitted with a quick release plate on the top (or back) of the pack, useful for many applications. The quick release plate has a 1/4-20 thread to attach under most cameras, and a 1/4-20 receptacle on the opposing side to mount to a tripod. In addition, the 1/4-20 quick release plate can be used to attach the pack to any part of a camera cage's side, top....anywhere with a 1/4-20 thread!

Compatible Charging
The Powerbase Edge charges on all Core SWX v-mount battery chargers, as well as other manufacturers v-mount chargers such as Sonyw, RED% and ID)C. In addition, the battery pack can be charged via the p-tap with the PB70C15 charger.

USB Power
As with all CoreSWX batteries offerings, We have an integrated p-tap (powertap/dtap) connector on the side of the battery allowing you to power any 12vdc device from this port which is a feature CoreSWX had since its first battery 17 years ago.

With our "ear to the ground," we also know how importance mobile devices are to production, and so we are one of the first companies to incorporate a USB port on the packs, providing accessible charging for your mobile devices.

Storage Mode
All Edge battery packs are now shipped in "Storage Mode." Storage mode reduces the chance of the battery being delivered in a fully depleted state of charge.

Travel Safe
All of CoreSWX batteries that are travel safe have a Air Compliant label. We understand that our consumers are constantly on the go, therefore CoreSWX is dedicated to making there experience as smoothly as possible.

Smart Tap
As with all CoreSW)( battery offerings, the Powerbase Edge has an intergrated p-tap (powertap/dtap) connector on the side of the battery allowing you to power any 12vdc device from this port which is a feature CoreSW)( had since its first battery 17 years ago. With that said once again through exstensive R&D CoreSWX is now offering a "Smart Ta#' a (powertap/dtap) which will pull all battery data.
