Core SWX Powerbase Edge Overview

This Core SWX Powerbase EDGE Bundle includes the Powerbase EDGE V-mount battery, an LP-E6 dummy battery power cable for the Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera, and a D-Tap wall charger. Connect the DC coupler cable into the 8.4 VDC barrel output on the battery to power your camera. To charge the battery, use the included wall charger.

The Core SWX Powerbase EDGE in a V-mount is a 14.8V, 49Wh, lithium-ion battery featuring an 8A continuous draw. This follow-up to the popular Powerbase 70 battery offers multiple modes of use. In addition to the V-mount, which allows it to be used with all cameras supporting a V-mount battery, the Powerbase EDGE has an 8.4V regulated DC output, a D-Tap output, a SmartTap output, and two USB ports.

Using the appropriate Powerbase EDGE power cable (sold separately), you can connect the battery to most mirrorless and DSLR cameras via the 8.4 VDC output. The SmartTap output, which is a Core SWX innovation, is a standard D-Tap connection with additional contacts inside that communicate SMBUS/smart battery data to compatible cameras. Other than this, it works just like a regular D-Tap port and supports standard D-Tap cables. Accordingly, you can use either the SmartTap or D-Tap port to power a camera using an optional D-Tap cable.
