Lithium-ion batteries are the standard found in most portable electronics these days. They are significantly lighter than most other technologies, this weight saving without any loss of power is a perfect for camera operators with ever-more power-hungry cameras. Li-ion batteries are not affected by the memory charging effect, so have a longer life-cycle.

With Dionic XT there is no need to try to calculate the remaining run time of your camera or device, simply attach the battery and the large on-board backlit display will tell you the remaining run-time hours and minutes for your device. For battery capacity as a percentage and other real-time diagnostics simply tap the battery to scroll though more information. You will always know exactly how long you can work, no more power failures in the field.

Amperage (abbreviated as A) is a measure of current. To choose the right battery for your system, simply add up the current draw of the individual components being powered to determine the system draw. Dionic XT batteries supply up to 12A of current. Most mid production rigs, and portable setups are well below 10A. Larger, energy hungry cine cameras that might include motorized lenses, monitor, etc sometimes go over the 10A limit and will need a 12A battery. The right power solution is based on the needs of the system being powered.
