Is this a suitable power option?

[Omar N]

Hi all!

I was wondering if some of you guys who are more experienced with using V mount batteries could tell me if this is all I would need to power my Scarlet.

Wooden Camera Fixed Back (http://www.adorama.com/WC159500.html)
Wooden Camera WC-V Mount Battery Plate (http://www.adorama.com/WC167000.html)
Global Mediapro Li95S Lithium ion V-Mount (http://www.globalmediapro.com/dp/A00UV7/Globalmediapro-Li95S-Lithium-ion-Battery-95WH/)
Sony BCL70 (http://www.adorama.com/SOBCL70.html...spLkKQt0McEDPmqgKWR46AEw1D1-pbupx8aAk4t8P8HAQ)

I already have the charger, so I would need to buy are the battery and wooden camera mounts. Seems pretty cheap, am I missing something?

All help greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Omar

Anyone? I think it should work, just wanted to get a second pair of eyes on it.

I don't see why not.

they spec 54 watts as the max power output for these batteries. According to the DSMC manual the camera draws approximately 60 watts when recording in 5K resolution, at 24 FPS.

You should be just barely OK for awhile but especially if you want to power additional accessories you may overload the battery and run time will be shortened possibly contributing to early battery failure if they get too hot.

I would recommend at least 140 watt/hr batteries unless you really need a light weight setup. The 160 Wh batteries from the same manufacturer actually have the same price per watt/hour

This has a draw of 79W and will be nicely tied to the red.

@160WH / 60 watts draw == 2.66hrs


this one has a 100W draw.

@230WH / 60 watts draw == 3.83hrs
