Please make battery plates for volts and XL's

[Björn Benckert]

It would be great if Red could make some low cost battery plates to use with the xl and and volt batteries.
I dont want to carry to many different kind of chargers and battery types. would be so nice to have singel and dual battery plates for volts and xl's use with third party gear to power proress recorders led lights etc.

I think red would gain alot on providing such as they would sell a shitload more of these batteries, atleast I would buy far more than i got now.

preferably:
a single redvolt battery plate.
a single xl plate.
and dual plates where the batteries can be hot swapable.

then we can ditch v locks, small sony batteries and all such and have the pix and everything else powered by volts and only bring volt chargers to sets.

and yes would be nice to have a wild cable out in the back and a 12v 2pin lemo output on the side.

I know you can do it.

I would love to have pure REDVOLT batteries if they would power all my 3rd party monitors, and accessories.
I have 12 REDvolts id buy 12 more to replace my Canon and Sony batteries to power the rest of my gear.

If there was a plate or battery belt clip type of thing I'd gladly ditch my vmounts for the smaller redvolt xl batteries.

Please Red

+1 too

Also still hoping they can release a version 2 with a longer wh. Needs to be backwards compatible (obviously to avoid simply being a new product requiring new components).

Yes please !
battery plates for volts and xl.
battery belts as well. With d-tap and USB 5v outs. I'd buy a ton of REDVOLTS today if you guys made some plates.

Brilliant ideas.

A redvolt plate and a hot swappable dual redvolt plate would go a long way towards taking weight and size off the camera. And a single and dual redvolt battery pack.

Redvolts could be massively more useful, especially if they could be hot swappable.

cha-ching, RED! this is a winner.

I would not ditch v-locks - but these would work in sooooo many applications where v-locks are awkward or cumbersome. And redvolts are the lightest, tightest option.

Same thing, I have a dozen of those, please bring the RedVolts plates!

 

[Donald MJ Anderson]

Yes please.

 

[Owen Rennie]

Yep I'm in!

Would have to lock in place well - which the redvolts are not designed for (at least based on how they connect to the charger). This is a giod idea and May be good for movi work too

They lock pretty well into the XL module so I think thats not an issue....

All it would really need to be is a plate that looks and kind of works like the XL module but instead of the connectors on the back it would have 12V power cable coming out. I would screw such onto directors monitor cage, lamps and a lot of other things.
