The Pawa Mini Brick 14.8V 99Wh V-Mount Batteryhas a standard-size V-mount in a compact form factor that provides a lot of benefits. The smaller size makes it easier to pair the battery with smaller camera setups and with gimbals and drones. The smaller size is also beneficial to more common setups, simply because the battery is substantially lighter this way. Pawa also blends the compact size with a modern design for a sleek, contemporary look.

Featuring a 99Wh capacity, the Mini Brick is suitable for short to mid-level shoots as far as runtime, depending on your camera. Used with a small mirrorless camera, it will certainly multiply the runtime you would normally get with the camera's standard battery. When the battery is in use, the remaining battery capacity is displayed on a backlit LCD that's located on the rear of the battery where it's easily visible during a shoot. When the battery is being charged, the LCD shows the remaining charge time.

The Mini Brick also features four accessory ports, three of them for powering accessories and one for charging the battery. A D-Tap output allows you to power an accessory, such as a monitor or light, simultaneously with your camera. (The D-Tap output supports up to a 10A draw.) USB-A and USB-C outputs let you power and charge mobile devices on set, such as smartphones. And a USB-C input can be used to recharge the battery over a USB cable as an alternative to using a V-mount charger. Two USB cables are included with the battery.

The battery supports up to a 13A continuous draw, so it can power up to some of the most power-hungry cameras and lights if you ever need to. Such a high draw isn't too common in batteries that have around a 100Wh capacity. Most generally go up to 10A (or even 8A).

To help maintain the lifespan of the battery, a built-in intelligent control circuit protects against damage from current or voltage overload, overheating, or short circuits.
