Uninterrupted Cinema Power for Demanding Productions

Designed for professional cinematographers, broadcast operators, and documentary shooters, the POWRIG D-Tap to BP-U Dummy Battery Power Cable delivers seamless, continuous power to your Sony cinema cameras and broadcast camcorders directly from standard V-Mount or Gold-Mount cinema batteries.

Featuring an integrated, fully decoded BP-U battery adapter, this cable eliminates unexpected shutdown risks, battery error prompts, and power-meter inaccuracies. By replacing standard Sony BP-U30, BP-U35, BP-U60, and BP-U90 packs, it enables all-day shooting on studio rigs, gimbals, and shoulder mounts without swapping internal batteries. Available in both a streamlined 90cm (35.4") straight cable for clean cage cable management and a flexible 30–120cm (11.8"–47.2") coiled cable for dynamic gimbal/slider setups.

Key Features

  • Fully Decoded BP-U Emulation: 100% compatible with Sony’s camera power handshakes. Displays accurate voltage/power status with zero system error warnings or startup blocks.
  • Direct 14.8V High-Current Power: Connects directly from any standard D-Tap / P-Tap output port (11V – 18.4V input, nominal 14.8V output) on V-Mount and Gold-Mount battery plates.
  • Two Rig-Optimized Configurations:
    • Straight Cable (90cm / 35.4"): Ideal for fixed studio rigs, tripod-mounted teleprompter setups, and organized shoulder rigs.
    • Coiled Cable (30–120cm / 11.8"–47.2"): Tangle-resistant flexibility for motorized gimbals, sliders, and handheld run-and-gun rigs.
  • Reinforced Strain Relief & Right-Angle D-Tap: Heavy-duty overmolded right-angle D-Tap plug prevents accidental snagging and reduces mechanical stress on battery plate ports.
  • Filmmaker-Grade Build Quality: Built with flame-retardant ABS dummy casing, precision gold-plated battery contact terminals, and flexible, wear-resistant PVC/TPU cabling.

1 × POWRIG D-Tap to BP-U Dummy Battery Power Cable

Q: Will this dummy battery trigger an "incompatible battery" warning on my Sony FX6 or FX9?
A: No. The POWRIG dummy battery is fully decoded with integrated communication circuitry, allowing seamless recognition by Sony FX6, FX9, FS7, and other BP-U powered cameras without error prompts or startup interrupts.

Q: Can I plug this into an unregulated 14.8V / 16.8V V-Mount D-Tap port?
A: Yes. Sony BP-U series cameras are engineered to accept nominal 14.4V–14.8V power (with full charge operating ranges up to ~16.8V). The standard D-Tap output from your V-Mount or Gold-Mount battery matches these camera input tolerances.

Q: Which cable style is best for gimbal work vs. tripod rigs?
A: We recommend the Coiled Cable (30–120cm / 11.8"–47.2") for gimbals, sliders, and shoulder rigs to avoid excess slack and balancing interference. The Straight Cable (90cm / 35.4") is ideal for fixed cage setups, studio tripods, and baseplate-mounted battery configurations.
