The Kondor Blue KB-Gld-Batt Cine Battery Plate is a professional power distribution hub designed to integrate Gold-Mount lithium-ion batteries into a 15mm rod-based camera rig. This precision-engineered component serves as the central link between a high-capacity battery and the entire camera system, securely mounting the power source while delivering clean, regulated DC power to the camera, monitor, wireless audio receivers, and other accessories. Constructed from CNC-machined aluminum, it features a robust Gold-Mount clamp mechanism that locks the battery firmly in place and an integrated 15mm rod clamp for direct attachment to standard or lightweight rods on a camera cage or shoulder rig.

The plate is engineered for efficiency and safety in demanding production environments. It provides multiple regulated output ports, typically including a high-current D-Tap (P-Tap) connector, a dedicated regulated output (often via a Hirose or Lemo connector) for the camera, and USB ports for powering smaller devices like wireless transmitters or SSD recorders. A clear voltage and charge status display allows operators to monitor battery health at a glance. Its design prioritizes a streamlined workflow, enabling quick battery swaps to maintain continuous shooting and significantly extending operational time compared to internal camera batteries.

By consolidating mounting and power distribution into a single, rugged unit, the KB-Gld-Batt Cine Battery Plate eliminates cable clutter and simplifies rig assembly. It is an essential component for professional cinematographers and videographers using DSLR, mirrorless, or cinema cameras, providing the reliable, high-capacity power required for extended shoots in both studio and field conditions.
