I bought six of these and run them on one Sony FX3 and Sony FX-30 cinema cameras. They last a good 3 hours powering the camera, ATOMOS Ninja monitor and a Sling Studio Live-streaming HDMI adapter. It’s great to have 3 in service and 3 other charging via 87 watt MacBook Air USB-C charger going directly into the PD input USB-C port on the battery. Will charge the battery in 1 1/2 hours with the MacBook charger.You basically have reliable unlimited battery life on set if you have two batteries per camera. I like that it has the digital display that tells you how much power is left.One thing I noticed once it gets less than I think it’s 10% on the battery that the USB and USB-C ports will stop providing power to prioritize the D-Tap port, so keep that in mind. Other than that, I highly recommend these and that’s the only thing I saw that you should be aware of. I’ve been using these for about three months and love them.

Normale batterie v-lock, non capisco perché debba costare molto di più rispetto agli altri modelli con identiche prestazioni

A V-Mount Plate chegou em 22 dias no Rio de Janeiro. A bateria demorou mais, 54 dias. Ainda não testei a V-Mount, mas parece muito boa. Testei a bateria. Durou 5 horas ligada direto com a minha Fuji XH2-S + o monitor Ninja V. Tudo ótimo!

Essa V-Mount é muito boa. Ela dura muito tempo (mais de 4 horas na blackmagic) e ainda alimenta o motor de foco e monitor. O carregamento também é bem rápido. É uma das que tem mais qualidade no mercado.

When I received the battery, it was charged at 100%. Nonetheless, I connected it to ensure it was fully charged before testing it out. I used it to power my FX3 (via USB-C) and my Atomos Ninja V. Initially, it took about an hour to drop from 100% to 65%, but then the battery depleted rapidly, going from around 60% to 0% in just 15 minutes. Overall, it lasted for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Concerned that the battery might be defective, I decided to give it a full cycle by recharging it, which took 3 hours. Upon testing it again, it lasted for 4 hours. While I haven't used it on a shoot yet, I plan to bring it with me starting next week, hoping it will now perform reliably.In the meantime, I researched other options and decided to also try the Came TV battery. I will test both of them on set to see how they perform and will update my review accordingly.

Here’s the update first! Fantastic customer service! Changing my review to highly recommend because their customer service was fantastic. Months after purchasing they are sending me a replacement and trying to get to the bottom of the failure with the battery so they can fix any potential problems in future production. I will definitely be buying another on of these in the future because even if I get a lemon I know they’ll take care of it and yes the price point and product is worth it.I have literally had this battery for 3 months and it has turned into a $180 paperweight... literally. I have had it plugged in for 2 weeks trying to get it charged (with the specific 65-watt charger it came with) and it has not budged an inch. I have tried different outlets different cables different houses... nothing. The battery was great for the first two times it charged and I could use it. If you want to spend almost $200 on paperweight let me know because I have one lying around now... if not go find something else.

Auf der Suche nach einem guten und verlässlichen V-Mount Akku bin ich neben dem ausgiebigen Angebot auf den Akku von ZGCine gestoßen.Vorallem Mini-VMounts welche über USB-C 9V/3A liefern sind aktuell sehr rar und meist recht teuer. Der ZGCine ist dafür sehr günstig.☑️ Lieferumfang:Der Akku kommt ungleich anderer Hersteller mit USB-C auf USB-A Kabel, USB-C auf USB-C und was mich sehr freut - Einem Dual-Port Galliumnitrid (GaN) 65W Ladegerät!Das Ladegerät dient somit nicht nur zum Laden des Akkus, sondern kann zeitgleich dank 2. Port für weitere Verbraucher verwendet werden.☑️ Haptik:Die Haptik des Akkus ist für die Preis vollkommend in Ordnung. Das Plastik hat ein Soft-Touch Finish, was vermutlich sehr kratzeranfällig ist. Das sollte aber nicht weiter schlimm sein. Einen Panzer kann man hier natürlich nicht erwarten, jedoch würde die Hülle des Akkus sicher den ein oder anderen Sturz problemlos überleben.Die Kabel als auch das Ladegerät fühlen sich wertig an.☑️ Anschlüsse:Der Akku verfügt über 3 USB-Anschlüsse. Davon sind 2 USB-C und 1 USB-A.Beide USB-C unterstützen PD-FastCharging, während der an der Seite auch zum Laden des Akkus selbst genutzt werden kann.Neben all den Anschlüssen ist auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite noch ein D-Tab und unten wie gewohnt bei V-Mounts der BP-Port.☑️ Performance:Ich habe den Akku nun bei verschiedenen Drehs, als auch privat zum Laden meines Smartphones genutzt.Alles in einem tut er alles was er soll - zusätzlich wurde das inkludierte Ladegerät zu meinem alltags Ladegerät.Der Akku ist Plug'n'Play, heisst der Knopf an der Seite ist zum anzeigen des Ladestands. Aktivieren tut der Akku sich von selbst, sobald ein Verbraucher angeschlossen ist.Mit den 9V/3A über USB-C kann ich auch problemlos meine Kamera (Lumix GH6) über USB-C laden & betreiben. So entsteht eine schöne Redundanz mit dem Kamerainternen Akku.-> Bisher sind mir keine Kinderkrankheiten oder Probleme aufgefallen.☑️ Support:Nun zum vielleicht wichtigsten Punkt, speziell bei neueren noch nicht allzu bekannten Herstellern - wie ist der Support?Ich hatte bereits ein paar Mal mit ZGCine Kontakt wegen eines anderen Produktes. Der Support hat mir immer sehr zügig, meist innerhalb 1-2 Stunden, geantwortet und war immer sehr gewillt mein Problem zu lösen. Kundenzufriedenheit scheint bei ZGCine ganz vorn zu stehen.☑️ Fazit:Wer nach einer V-Mount mit modernen Ports sucht ist hier an der richtigen Stellen. Meines Erachtens kann man mit der V-Mount Batterie von ZGCine nichts falsch machen. Sie hat mir treuen Dienst geleistet und ich freue mich sie in Zukunft noch oft zu verwenden.

I love these batteries! Not only are they fairly cost effective compared to name brand companies but they hold up really well. You can see the rig I use my V160 on and it lasts for hours and hours. I will typically use the V99's for lighting rigs while on set, so I can be mobile. You will get at least 1 hour of 100% power on an Apurture 60x, which might not seem like a lot but thats quite a bit more time than another off brand battery I have.My biggest compliment and positive remark is to the customer service. I was having an issue with the 1st V99 I bought and the owner spoke with me directly (via WhatsApp) and sent me a replacement without much hassle and sent me a new V-mount plate to match for my rig. Haven't had any issues since then!! ZGCine is really active on Instagram so they will frequently tag my posts and engage with the content I post.No complaints!

First, I want to say i have the ZGCine V99 and absolutely love it! So, when I was informed that they had a V160 I knew i had to purchase it. These Vmount batteries are very useful in so many applications. I use them for my cameras such as my FX6 paired with the Ninja atomos, and having that extra power helps me run all day. I also use them to power my Tilta ring and all the accessories.Now, I use my V mount batteries to power my LED LIGHTS. This makes them light and very portable. My V99 will run my Colbor 60L for 1 hour full power, so now I’ll get a little extra shooting time with this V160.The weight is not super heavy being 1.6lbs, but just be aware.Charging time: if you’re using a 100w pd charger it will take 3 hours, and if you use a 65w pd charger like i use, it will fully charge in 3.5 hours.It has a Dtap out on the side of the battery and PD IN for charging the unit on the opposite side. On the top of the unit, it has another Dtap out and new for this version is a PD USB TYPE C OUT. With this, you can charge your phone, batteries, and/or accessories.I highly recommend these batteries, as they are built with great quality. The display showing the battery levels is also a plus for me.

Been using it for the past week on video productions. Works real well on my Sony FX6 and I have 4-5 hours of battery time to use the camera for A-Roll and B-Roll work!I'm also a big fan of the percentage display for the battery, now I can accurately swap the battery instead of using the classic quarter percentage system you would find on traditional batteries.The battery also has Super Charging 2.0 Support for anyone that uses Samsung devices so that is a massive plus as I have struggled to find battery banks that support that protocol.In regards to charging:The battery will arrive drained, so be sure to use a proper 45w or more USB-C charger to kick start the first charge and consider letting it charge overnight. The manual does a good job explaining an example of charger to use. I personally own an Anker charger but you can use any GaN style charger to charge the battery. Once the battery is charged enough you can use a DTAP port to charge the battery with a DTAP charger.Will update this review if there are any other additional things I find.Good job ZGCine for making a great 160wh compact battery to use without breaking the bank!!
