[0.28 lb] Let's face it... V-Mount batteries, adapters and accessories are the most stable, powerful and reliable source of power. They will power our cameras, monitors, and especially lighting when working in the field and they can be quite an investment.They are not cheap.

With that said, why would you go cheap on a charger? It's just common sense. 5 batteries can cost over a thousand dollars, and using cheap D-Tap changers, not only the overheat in extrames, some reaching 200.F, you can't touch the enclosure!! Plus, they don't have the sophistication and stability and proper current as a professional V-Mount charger does. It's good for your battery and it will ensure the longest life based on the proper conditioned rate / voltage they offer.

I previously own a Watson Dual Charger but this thing is my dream charger. Not only it will charger 4 batteries simultaneously, but, cosmetically, it is BEAUTIFUL! It's all made of METAL, and that spring loaded handle feels good to lift.

It also has a separate circuitry, separating the charging and the DC output. The bright charging status LEDs, you can't miss it. It shows when your batteries are done from a great distance. Red obviously means its charged, and green as ready.

Charging 4 Watson Pro Cine High-Load Gold Mount 150 watt-hour Battery takes less than 3 hours, 47 minutes and the unit remains cool, and SO DO THE BATTERIES! Now try that with a D-Tap charger...

Charging a Watson 50 watt-hour Micro V-Mount battery takes 1 hour, 27 minutes.

I also found the perfect soft bag online that almost looks like it was made for this charger. Search for Neewer NW-140-S (see pictures)

I can't be happier of more impressed with this charger. My dream charger :)

[I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

[4 x 3 x 2"] My other charger wasn't available, having left it overseas.
Chargers can be hit or miss in terms of quality so I bought the official one.
No problems, charges up fast.

[0.28 lb] Picked up this charger mainly because its $160 with EDU discount which is crazy.
Charges pretty fast & simultaneously! (5A with 1 or 2.5A each with 2).
Its small enough to fit in with other gear if needed and not too heavy. The handle is a nice touch although removing it would probably save a decent amount of space for travel.

[0.28 lb] Comes in handy when your trying to be cost effective in battery or battery v plate .

[0.28 lb] works with all of our v mount batteries. Great value for the money

[0.28 lb] Got this to replace the slowest charger on the east coast and load its great! I noticed my AC's were using it over the Anton Baeur rental onset. So that was cool. Totally worth it.

[4 x 3 x 2"] The Ioptron AZ Mount Pro is hefty enough for my needs
The lithium Battery lasts hours BUT you do need a charger
B&H is a convenient a reliable place to secure one

[4 x 3 x 2"] I took a chance on this and I'm not disappointed. The first unit I received was damaged due to B&H's lackluster shipping packing. Second one has been great. Build quality is beefy, charges quickly. This is my second Watson Pro charger; I also got the smaller version for L-series NPF batteries.

[4 x 3 x 2"] I recently purchased this charger with the intention of finding a faster and more convenient solution for charging my gold mount batteries while on the go. I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the performance and affordability of this charger.

One of the standout features of this charger is its ability to provide fast charging for gold mount batteries. This has been a game-changer for me, as it significantly reduces the waiting time for my batteries to reach full charge. With the fast charging capability, I can quickly replenish the power of my batteries and get back to shooting without unnecessary delays. This feature alone has greatly improved my efficiency on set and made my workflow much smoother.

In addition to its impressive performance, the price of this charger is remarkably reasonable.

[4 x 3 x 2"] Excellent replacement for the original.
