Battery and charger

We include our brand new battery pack. This consists of a newly recelled 450mAH NiMH battery pack and a very sturdy machined aluminium battery holder / grip. This is custom machined for us to fit perfectly onto the camera and is much stronger than the original Beaulieu grip. The USB-powered smart charger can be used both from a mains-powered USB adaptor at home, or with a USB power pack for mobile use. This has the great benefit that you can keep your camera battery topped up when on the move as it charges the camera battery in-situ.

The charger charges at a current of 500mA which is optimal for NiMH cells, and also won't overload the cameras' circuitry.

The charger has an LED that indicates charging status:

  • Solid Red: charging
  • Solid Green: fully charged
  • Flashing Red: error
