Anton/Bauer Expands DIONIC 26V Battery Series

A range of B-Mount batteries, chargers and camera plates have been developed in cooperation with ARRI, for cinematographers, rental houses, and content creators using cameras such as the recently launched ARRI Alexa 35.

Just like Anton/Bauer’s existing 26V Gold-Mount Plus solution, the native 26V B-Mount Li-ion batteries offer up to 240 watt-hours of reliable, safe, and efficient power.

The DIONIC native 26V range now includes 98-watt-hour and 240-watt-hour batteries and quad chargers in B-Mount or Gold-Mount Plus options, plus a range of mounting plates for connecting to industry-leading cameras and LED lighting fixtures.

The DIONIC 26V B-Mount series has been designed to drive high-power cine cameras such as the ARRI Alexa 35. With their lighter weight and more compact form factor, the DIONIC 26V batteries offer greater mobility for high power camera operators than tethered power sources such as AC or block-style batteries. DIONIC 26V batteries can also be used as a hot-swappable backup power solution for gear running from large power sources, such as VCLX block-style batteries, eliminating the need to power down a camera to change the main power source.

The DIONIC 26V B-Mount Charger offers rapid charging for B-Mount 26V batteries — charging the 98Wh battery in around 1.5 hours and the 240Wh battery in around 3.5 hours.

Like the other batteries in the Anton/Bauer DIONIC range, DIONIC 26V B-Mount batteries feature an ultra-high-strength polycarbonate blend construction. This protects the premium battery cells to ensure peak performance even in the most demanding conditions — including extreme heat, humidity, and cold.
