The IDX IPL-150 Powerlink Li-Ion High-Load V-Mount Battery features a V-mount and has a 143Wh capacity. This advanced battery features IDX's Powerlink system that lets you piggyback and hot swap other IPL batteries onto this one when mounted on a camera, for virtually unlimited runtime. The Powerlink system draws power from the battery furthest from the camera or light fixture until that battery is drained, at which time it starts to pull power from the next furthest battery. You can also stack up to four batteries to charge them. The power link system works with IDX DUO-C batteries as well, as long as those are the last ones on the linking chain.

This battery has a capacity of 143Wh and supports draws up to 11.3A, although linking two or more IPL batteries enables supporting draws of up to 14A. As one would expect when working with a professional battery, the camera is able to display the battery's data information in its viewfinder. Outfitted with two D-Taps, one standard and one Advanced, as well as a 5V 2.3A USB port, the battery has plenty of power for accessories. It is designed with battery circuit protection against overcharge, overdischarge, overcurrent, and exposure to high temperatures, providing protection to your battery from the rigors of production. A 5-LED battery life indicator on the side provides a quick visual indication of the charge state of your battery. A built-in retractable cover helps keep the batteries V-mount contacts clean and dust-free when not mounted on a device. Use an IDX VL-2000S charger when charging your batteries.
The VL-DT1 is a single channel, low cost, portable charger designed to charge IDX batteries equipped with a D-Tap Advanced port. The D-Tap Advanced’s 3-pin design monitors the cell status to ensure correct, controlled charging which prolongs battery life.
