Lithium Ion Camera Batteries

Runtime depends on battery capacity and camera power draw. A 150Wh battery like the Logos 150 G or The Protean typically powers smaller cinema cameras for 1–2 hours, while high-capacity systems like the SLi-D1000 (970Wh) or Artisan Block (900+ Wh) can power professional cameras and accessories through a full production day.

Block Battery's lithium ion camera batteries support a wide range of voltages including 14V, 16V, 24V, 28V, and 30V. Dual-voltage models like the SLi-D600 and SLi-D1000 provide simultaneous 14V and 28V outputs, making them compatible with cameras like Sony FX9, Canon EOS C400, and RED cinema systems.

Block Battery products support V-Mount (V-Lock), B-Mount, and Gold Mount (Three Stud) configurations. Several models, such as The Protean and SLi-300, are compatible with multiple mount types via eliminator plates, allowing flexible integration across diverse camera rigs and production setups without purchasing separate batteries.

Yes, select models are specifically designed for air travel compliance. The Protean splits into two isolated 75Wh batteries for carry-on compliance, while the SLi-D600 and SLi-D1000 feature disassemblable QuickCell modular designs that allow individual cartridges to meet airline lithium battery carry-on regulations.

Yes. Several models including the SLi-D600, SLi-D1000, and SLi-300 feature a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) mode that allows the battery to charge and power connected equipment simultaneously. This ensures uninterrupted power delivery on set, even during charging cycles — critical for continuous professional production workflows.

Yes. Models like the Logos 150 G feature re-cell and service capable housings, extending overall product life. The Artisan Block and SLi-D600 series also offer cartridge-level servicing and the optional Cartridge Analyzer & Balancer accessory, which can balance and analyze up to 10 cartridges for long-term performance maintenance.
