Introducing the Core SWX PB Edge Snap

The Core SWX PB Edge Snap is a compact, stackable battery specifically designed for the needs of modern film productions. With a 49Wh capacity, this battery allows multiple units to be connected in parallel to expand power capacity and maximize output. It features two PD Pro offering 5V to 28V outputs, as well as two P-tap to power up to four accessories simultaneously. Its hot-swapper design allows for easy replacement without interrupting power to the equipment.

Practical use cases

Productions using high energy consumption cameras

The Core SWX Powerbase Edge Snap is especially useful for high-power professional cameras like the Sony A7S II. During extended shoots of events such as concerts or interviews, this battery extends camera runtime far beyond the capabilities of typical small internal batteries. By stacking multiple Edge Snap and using a magnetic mount, creators can film for hours without changing batteries, preventing interruptions during critical moments.

Use on camera rigs and cages

One of the strengths of the Powerbase Edge Snap lies in its versatile mounting options. Thanks to its 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 threads, it can be securely attached to various supports such as cages or rigs. This ability to adapt to multiple configurations makes it ideal for outdoor or studio productions, where mobility and quick setup are essential.

Multiple accessory management

For film crews using multiple accessories simultaneously, such as monitors, wireless transmitters, or LED lights, the Core SWX PB Edge Snap ‘s four ports (two D-Tap and two PD Pro USB-C) allow them to power all these devices without needing multiple batteries. This feature is especially useful when shooting multi-camera interviews or live broadcasts, where uninterrupted power is crucial.

Filming in challenging environments

With its hot-swapper design, this battery is ideal for documentaries or films shot in challenging environments. Filmmakers can add or remove batteries without interrupting power to the equipment, ensuring uninterrupted shooting.

Battery monitoring and management via Voltbridge

Thanks to Voltbridge iD connectivity , technical teams can remotely monitor the status of their batteries via a mobile application. This real-time monitoring simplifies the management of battery fleets in more complex production environments, where multiple teams work at different charging stations.

• Hot-swap and stackable design for continuous and modular use
• Simultaneous power supply for up to 4 accessories via D-Tap and PD Pro
