Anton/Bauer has expanded its line of battery power products to include the CINE-VCLX and new VCLX/2 products, which offer dual simultaneous output voltages and a high-wattage performance level suitable for digital cinema production.

Employing the same NiMH technology used in the company’s Hytron video batteries, CINE-VCLX and VCLX/2 are not subject to transportation restrictions of lithium ion or the disposal burdens of lead acid batteries. The new batteries can deliver up to 32 amps total power-12 amps from the regulated 28 volt channel and 20 amps from the 14 volt channel.

CINE VCLX offers 560 watt-hours of NiMH power, while the new CINE-VCLX/2 will deliver 280 watt-hours in a compact-sized package. Both batteries feature Anton/Bauer’s RealTime capacity display, calibrated for the higher loads of cinema equipment, along with a visual LED battery change warning.

Specialized InterActive chargers for each of these batteries cut charge time from older lead acid types to about seven hours for the VCLX and to a rapid three hours for the VCLX/2.

Both CINE-VCLX and VCLX/2 batteries can power digital cameras such as the ARRI D-20, Sony F23/F35, Phantom HD, Panavision Genesis and Sony F900. The batteries also work with film cameras including the ARRI 235, 416, 435, 535 and Moviecam.

The high power 28 volt output will address up to 250 watt HMI lights and lighting panels from various manufacturers. CINE batteries fit all dollies including Chapman-Leonard and J.L. Fisher.
