Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. When it says "Fully Decoded Dummy Battery" does this mean it most likely won't give errors? Also, would this be safe to use (correctly) with an FX3?

A: We would not recommend using this with the Sony FX3, as it is not among the tested and approved units by Sony.

Q: 2. Will this power a camera plugged into the USB-C ports on the DJI RS2 gimbal?

A: No, the ZILR USB-C to Sony NP-FZ100 Regulated Dummy Battery Cable (24") would not be able to receive power from the USB-C ports on the DJI RS 2 Gimbal Stabilizer Pro Combo.

Q: 3. Can you attach a USC Plug and use a wall outlet to use the battery?

A: Yes, The ZILR USB Type-C to Sony NP-FZ100 Regulated Dummy Battery Cable could be used with USB wall power adapters.

Q: 4. Sony NP-FZ100 batteries output 7.2V. Is 8V ok for the A7-series?

A: Yes, the Kondor Blue D-Tap to NP-FZ100 Dummy Battery Cable for Sony a7S III is a regulated adapter and will deliver the correct voltage to your desired camera powered by the NP-FZ100 battery.

Q: 5. is compatible with the FX30?

A: Yes, the Kondor Blue D-Tap to NP-FZ100 Dummy Battery Cable for Sony a7S III (Black), would be appropriate for a Sony FX30 camera, as it also uses an NP-FZ100 style battery.

Q: 6. These reviews have me nervous. Any chance you can guarantee that this unit will not break the camera that uses it?

A: We are not able to guarantee the performance of any product sold as we are not the manufacturer. IndiPro offers a Limited 1-Year Warranty and it is compatible with the listed cameras: Sony Alpha a9/a7 III/a7R III Camera

Q: 7. It shows the "regulated output" voltage, what is the allowable input? I'm assuming it's 14.8, but I'd like to know for sure.

A: The input should be 12V when using the DigitalFoto Solution Limited Sony NP-FZ100 Fully Decoded Dummy Battery.

Q: 8. Can a USB-C to USB-A adapter be used for the connection to the battery source?

A: It would not be recommended to use a USB-C to USB-A adapter with the ZILR USB-C to Sony NP-FZ100 Regulated Dummy Battery Cable (24") to connect to a battery source due to the need for PD standards for proper voltage regulation.

Q: 9. Can I power my Sony a7s III, with this Dummy battery, without hurting the camera?

A: Yes, your camera will be fine using the ZILR USB Type-C to Sony NP-FZ100 Regulated Dummy Battery Cable (24") for power.

[0.125 lb] Great for outdoor use while filming in remote regions with a base camp. 5

[Coiled Power] Been working great with my a7IV attached to a battery plate with a v mount battery 5

Edward	04/09/2024
[Coiled Power] When shooting stills or video for an extended period with a USB power source, the internal battery still supplies 20% or more of the current, and lasts only about 5 hours. Furthermore, USB connections are small and subject to excessive wear. This battery substitute runs from a large 14 V video battery through a D-Tap connection, and is regulated to provide the full 7.2 VDC required by the camera. 5

[Coiled Power] It does its job perfectly. Easy to use a USB source to power the camera 5

[12 to 18 VDC] I bought another power bank with PD support and 22.5W output Baseus. My camera works, but I haven't tested it yet in a field. 5

[Coiled Power] Does what it does for your expensive Sony gear. I don't see the need to skimp on one when you need to. Just buy once, and that's it. 5

[0.125 lb] Bought 2. Ordered on a Sunday and they were here the following Wednesday! Worked as advertised on my Sony FDR-AX100’s. Of course be gentle with them as we can see that the wire entering dummy is not reinforced with an anchor sleeve of some sort. Thx BH! Pray for Israel 5

[12 to 18 VDC] Ho I can power my Sony camera from IDX V-Mout battery. Runtime is endless!!! 5

[Coiled Power] I use the Watson D-Tap Dummy Battery with our Sony FX3 and a7siii and it makes longer shoot days a breeze. On days when we are doing nonstop interviews, this adapter shines. I can usually get through the day with one v-mount battery vs 3-4 OG batteries. It is a time saver on set for sure. I've used it on 2-3 shoots thus far and I haven't had any issues. I can see this being amazing once I get one of those block cage rigs for the fx3. Overall, I'm impressed. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review] 5

[Coiled Power] This is a great way to run a camera off a v-mount battery or any other battery with a d-tap out. It is working flawlessly. It's perfect for long shoots or when the camera needs to run for a long time without the need to change batteries. It is also great for table-tops, match cut shots, stop motion animation shoots or any situation where you can't move the camera or it is difficult to change batteries, like when on a jib. The larger batteries with a d-tap last much, much longer than the NP-FZ100 camera batteries. One v-mount battery lasts all day with my Sony A73. I love that. And if you put your camera on rods, they make mounts for v-mount batteries, so this could used for a great run and gun set-up. Perfect for long days of shooting or to impress a client with your cool, bigger camera rig. The Sony A73 has a little notch on the battery door to pass the cable thru for this dummy battery. It was very easy to install. The build quality of this dummy battery is also very impressive. The coiled cable is a great length that stretches out to 24, but coils up nice and neat when you do not need the entire length. This dummy battery also comes with a built-In voltage regulator to protect everything, which is great. Another added benefit to this dummy battery adapter is even if you are using the regular camera batteries, having this in your kit is a great emergency back-up for power. I like having that as a nice peace of mind. I'm very happy with this product. Again, it works just as advertised as, and is a helpful addition to my camera package.
