  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Anton Bauer QR-HOTSWAPGM Hot-Swap Battery Plate - for AB Gold Mounts For RED???

In use both (Hot swap and Red Gold mount) for my Red.
The only issue I had was the thermal fuses in the Hot Swap, so I bypassed them (solder a wire across both ends of the fuse) and it was been working great since then.
 
Ketch,

The hot swap plate that you linked clicks into an existing AB three pin gold mount plate and turns a single into a double. It does not have its own power cable to the Red camera.

The hot swap plate draws from both batteries simultaneously, so you need to always have one battery more charged than the other. You wait for the weaker battery to run low and then you swap that one for a fully charged block.

I use that hot swap plate with this AB top handle package.

Hope that helps. :beer:
