The Block Battery alternative to Dracast Gold Mount Batteries

Yes. Products like The Protean and SLi-300 are compatible with Gold Mount, B-Mount, and V-Mount via eliminator plates or multi-mount configurations. This allows a single battery to power a wide range of professional cinema cameras and accessories without requiring separate battery units for each mount type.

Block Battery Gold Mount batteries range from 150Wh (Logos 150 G and The Protean) to 304Wh (SLi-300). The Protean can split into two isolated 75Wh units for travel compliance. The SLi-300 uses LiFePO4 chemistry for extended runtimes exceeding two hours for most smaller cinema cameras.

The Protean is specifically designed for travel compliance — it splits into two mechanically and electrically isolated 75Wh batteries, both under the 100Wh per-unit carry-on threshold. The Logos 150 G and SLi-300 are standard lithium batteries and are subject to IATA and DOT regulations for transport; consult your airline before travel.

The Protean supports both 14V and 28V outputs with quick mode switching, making it compatible with a wide range of production equipment. The Logos 150 G and SLi-300 are single 14V output batteries, ideal for cameras, LED panels, and accessories rated for 14V operation up to 150 watts.

Yes. All Block Battery Gold Mount batteries support load ranges from 0 to 150 watts, making them suitable for powering LED lights, monitors, wireless transmitters, and other production accessories. The SLi-300 is particularly well-suited for light stand or shoulder-rig use with its modular, lightweight 9 lb LiFePO4 design.

The Logos 150 G is compatible exclusively with Block Battery chargers. The SLi-300 includes a charger in its purchase price and also supports the optional PSU-100 18.5 charger. It is recommended to use manufacturer-approved chargers to ensure safe charging, accurate battery display data, and full warranty protection for your investment.
