Available for pre-order, expected to ship in October.
Power Distribution Box DB-10 (Canon C400, V-Mount) attaches to the back of the camera using the included ARCA Backpack and provides intelligent power distribution with D-Taps, 5V USB-C PD, 3pin Fischers, and 2pin LEMO compatible connectors. Removable REMOTE LANC cable enables remote start/stop capability using 3pin Fischer devices.
Hot swap between onboard battery and 4pin XLR DC INPUT without losing camera or accessory power. When both sources are connected, the DC INPUT takes priority down to 12.5V at which point, the DB-8 will switch to an onboard battery.
The ARCA Backpack design allows Canon's BP-A30N battery to be installed in the camera to function as an emergency backup. To swap the internal battery, unlock the ARCA Backpack thumbscrew, slide up, and release the battery.
With the SMART FUSE design, camera power is monitored and the remaining power budget is allocated to accessories. For example, the C400 uses approximately 1.6A at 14V so when using a 10A capable battery, the remaining 8.4A is allocated for accessory use. If an accessory configuration exceeds the 8.4A limit, accessory power is cut off, leaving the camera powered. The "SMART FUSE" LED will illuminate showing the error and once the configuration has been adjusted to lower than 8.4A, the RESET button can be pressed and power will be re-enabled to accessory outputs.
In the event of a complete short circuit, the system will immediately shut down and can only be turned back on once the short circuit has been removed.
The DB-10 is also compatible with Canon C300mkIII and C500mkII start/stop capability requires a longer REMOTE LANC cable.
User changeable Gold Mount Plates available as well.
