American Made Lithium Batteries — Safe & Reliable

Yes. Block Battery designs and manufactures professional lithium-ion battery systems in America for cinema, broadcast, lighting, and video production. The company is family owned, veteran owned, and headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. Its product lines support demanding on-set applications, including feature films, commercial shoots, ENG/EFP, lighting production, aerial cinematography, sound carts, and video village power.

Block Battery is an American battery brand serving professional cinema, broadcast, and video production markets. Founded in 2007, the company manufactures systems for ARRI Alexa, Sony Venice, RED, Phantom, Blackmagic, Canon, and other professional camera platforms. Its products include Pro-Block, Linkey Block, Indi-Blocks, Protean 4, Artisan Block, SLi series, 2F1-150, and INDY high-capacity systems.

Block Battery systems are built for professional production environments where battery failure can interrupt expensive shoot days. They use robust electrical and mechanical design, high-capacity configurations, and multi-voltage support for cameras, lights, gimbals, monitors, and accessories. The company focuses on reliable performance for feature films, broadcast operations, commercial production, ENG field work, and other high-demand workflows.

Block Battery supports the major voltage requirements used across professional cinema and broadcast equipment, including 14.4V, 24V, 28.8V, and 30V configurations. Product lines are available for V-Mount, Gold Mount or Anton Bauer-pattern setups, and 28V B-Mount applications. This helps productions power mixed camera packages without relying on multiple incompatible battery inventories.

Block Battery products are compatible with leading cinema camera platforms when paired with the appropriate mount plate or configuration. Supported brands include ARRI Alexa and Amira, Sony Venice and FX series, RED V-Raptor and Komodo, Phantom Flex 4K and other Phantom systems, Blackmagic URSA, Canon C-series cameras, Panasonic Varicam, and several ENG/EFP camera lines.

Pricing is custom quoted based on the production’s equipment, runtime needs, voltage requirements, mounting preferences, and quantity. Block Battery is distributed through a national dealer network rather than direct retail or consumer sales. Authorized dealers can assist production companies, rental houses, broadcasters, and independent filmmakers with quotes, fleet programs, and configuration guidance.

The right system depends on the production load. Compact cameras may use 2F1-150 or SLi options, while feature film, lighting, aerial, and video village setups may require Linkey Block, INDY 3000/6000, Pro-Block, Protean 4, or Artisan Block. Key factors include watt-hour capacity, voltage, current draw, mount type, runtime goals, and whether the package includes cameras, lights, gimbals, or accessories.

Yes. Block Battery serves camera rental houses, lighting rental houses, broadcast networks, feature film productions, commercial production companies, and fleet buyers through authorized dealers. Its broad lineup helps standardize battery inventories across ARRI, Sony, RED, Phantom, Blackmagic, Canon, and ENG camera packages, reducing prep complexity for rental operations and multi-camera production teams.
