A: This will not power and XF400. We are not aware of any USB power options that will.

Q: 6. Are they chipped? Do these Watsons show remaining charge on the back of the Olympus camera screen?

A: You have to remove the battery from camera to charge,so the camera is not connected to it.This is a great charger it shows percentage of charge and voltage after pressing test button.shows progress when charging and can do 2 batteries at once even at different levels of charge.make shure to get right battery adaptor for this unit to charge the battery you have.

Q: 7. Can I use this dummy battery for original BMPCC(not the 4K) ?

[0.125 lb] Works as I hoped--no longer need a battery to keep DSLR running while using it as a webcam. Wire is out of the way of tripod mount, too. Loving it. 5

[0.125 lb] When you can't afford a battery dying on a shoot, get a dummy battery. 5

[0.125 lb] Used for hours-long interval astrophotography and solves having to interrupt my session to replace batteries! Great find! 5

[0.125 lb] One of the Q&A’s says the Bescor BLS50AC dummy battery adapter kit is not compatible with the Olympus E-PL9. I asked Bescor ( answers@bescor.com ) why the kit is compatible with the Olympus OM-D E-M5/M10, but not the Olympus Pen E PL9, since all three use the same Olympus BLS-50 battery. The response was: “It will work. Your camera just needs to be added to our list.” The Bescor is 8V 3A. The Olympus battery is 7.2V 1175 mAh (1.175A). I did some online research to see if a device built for 7.2V could operate at 8V. One person describing himself as an engineer posted that 7.4V Lithium batteries actually span a 6V to 8.4v voltage range depending on state of charge of the battery. Another “senior electrical engineer” said that because all devices are designed with some voltage tolerance value, a 7.4 volt device means 7.4 volt +/- 1 to 1.5 volts. Still other posts indicated that you can use a 3A power adapter on a 1.5A device. By logical extension, I figured (I don’t actually know) that since the PL9 uses a 7.2 volt battery, it is probably designed to also work at 8 volts, and is also okay running at 3A. Based on the response from Bescor and the Internet voltage and amperage responses, I decided to purchase the Bescor and use it with my PL9. I haven’t seen any sign of overheating or other problems with this setup so far, but will update this review if that changes. I did not deduct points for the need to leave the battery compartment open because I knew that would be the case when I bought it. 5

[0.125 lb] Nice to have this for document and slide scanning projects. Swapping batteries was tedious and problematic if not charged. B&H delivered a few days sooner than promised as well. 5

[0.125 lb] I needed a dummy battery to power my Olympus mirrorless camera while using it for streaming. This option from Bescor does the job and I have had zero issues with it thus far. I would recommend this product to anyone who is in need of powering their Olympus camera with an exterior power source. 5

[0.125 lb] Included everything I needed to keep an OM-D EM-10 mark II powered for long sessions on a tripod. One note - the battery door will not close, as such you may need to position the camera carefully to fit a tripod mount, but the battery clip holds the dummy battery fine while the door is open. 5
