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.
