The ZGCINE VM-HS2 Hot Swap Dual Micro V-Mount Battery Plate is the ultimate power hub for professional filmmakers and camera operators who demand uninterrupted, versatile on-set power. Designed around a standard V-Mount base, it accepts two Micro V-Mount batteries simultaneously with true hot-swap capability, so you can swap depleted batteries mid-shoot without ever cutting power to your camera or accessories.
With an impressive 10-port output array — including a 100W USB-C PD port, four D-Tap outputs, two Lemo 2-Pin outputs, and a BP output, all at 14.8V/10A — the VM-HS2 centralises power for cameras, monitors, wireless systems, and laptops from a single, elegantly mounted plate. A one-key power control switch and clear power-access indication keep you in full command of your power setup at all times.
