The Munich-based battery manufacturer bebob has announced the expansion of its Vmicro lineup.
With new models featuring USB-C PD3 support, advanced communication protocols and sustainable serviceability, the new releases “set a new standard for compact and high-performance power solutions”, bebob said.
The new Vmicro batteries are designed to deliver high performance in an ultra-compact and lightweight form factor, making them the “perfect choice” for mobile production environments where space and weight are critical.
With USB-C PD3 support for both input and output, users can charge and power devices without the need for a proprietary charger, ensuring maximum flexibility on set and during travel.
Thanks to an advanced auto communication setup, the batteries automatically adapt to different camera systems, including Sony, Blackmagic Design, Red, Fuji, ARRI and others.
This is complemented by SM-Bus communication and a practical five-step LED display, giving users a clear and reliable indication of both the State of Charge and the State of Health of the battery at all times.
Beyond power delivery, the batteries also feature special operational functions such as an integrated flashlight for quick use in dark environments.
Furthermore, the optimised storage design allows the batteries to be stacked safely and efficiently, making transport and storage more practical for production teams.
In terms of safety, the entire product range is fully certified according to international standards. This includes IEC 62133-2 for product safety, UN38.3 for transport safety, as well as FCC and CE certifications for electromagnetic compatibility.
The batteries also conform to CE, UKCA, and other relevant directives, ensuring reliable and secure operation worldwide.
Finally, the new lineup has been developed with serviceability and sustainability in mind. Each model is repairable and maintenance-capable, and through a cell pack refreshment process, the batteries can be given a second life, reducing waste and extending long-term usability.
This approach not only supports the environment but also provides significant cost benefits for professional users.
The VmicroCs are backed by a two-year unconditional warranty on all components, except for the cells. The cells are covered by a one-year warranty, guaranteeing a minimum of 80% of their original capacity.
