SmallRig 5536 Adapter Plate for NP-F Type Batteries (Supports UPS)
This plate can be mounted using a V-mount plate or via the 1/4"-20 threaded holes on the underside, and accommodates one or two NP-F batteries to power your equipment. When two batteries are inserted, the hot-swap function allows you to replace one battery without switching off connected devices, guaranteeing an uninterrupted power supply (UPS).
Equipped with multiple output ports — D-Tap, DC (5521), and USB-C — this adapter plate lets you power several devices simultaneously. The ports are strategically positioned to prevent interference with camera operation and the use of top handles. The USB-C port supports an input power of up to 36 W, allowing the plate to function as a charging station as well.
An integrated intelligent management chip optimises both discharging and charging: during discharge, the battery with the lowest charge level is drained first. When voltage drops low, the chip switches to parallel output to enable hot-swaps and power high-consumption devices. During charging, the chip prioritises the battery with the highest charge level before switching to simultaneous charging for more efficient operation.
A dedicated on/off switch lets you check the power status and turn the unit on with a single press. Holding the switch for longer (2 seconds) cuts the output to all connected devices. This simplifies operation and saves energy by eliminating the need to disconnect cables after a shoot. Individual LED indicators for each channel provide an at-a-glance overview of battery status.
