With an operating temperature range of -4 to 122° F, the battery will keep working even in deep cold and extreme heat.

Features

• 90Wh Li-ion professional mount battery pack does not suffer from memory effect, common to NiCd batteries.
• Fits camera and lighting units with corresponding connection type.
• The built-in LED battery gauge provides you with a clear visual confirmation of the battery’s capacity.
• The built-in D-tap connector allows you to power accessories directly from the battery, protecting your camera’s electronics from potential damage due to power hungry accessories.
• The battery incorporates electronic protection from over-charging, over-discharging, over-current-draw, external short-circuits, and non-equilibrium between its power cells.
• The battery will operate in temperature extremes that are uncomfortable for most people. Please note that as a general rule, battery capacity decreases as the temperature gets colder. Check your owner’s manual for instructions on charging cold or hot batteries.
• An attached rubber cover protects the D-tap connector when not in use.
