Core SWX has announced new Sharkfin plate for red V-raptor Which allows users to get increased runtime and hotspot capabilities. These all-aluminum plates are available on V-mount (CXV-TS-VRAP) And 3-Stud AB Gold Mount (CXV-TA-VRAP)
They connect to the V-RAPTOR’s V-mount so you can attach two V-mounts or a 3-stud battery pack (full size, mini or micro) to the back of the camera. Then the set screw locks the positioning so that you can accommodate any size battery pack.
A storage slot holds a magnetic Allen key in place.
You can choose one or the other and then the other using both battery packs at the same time To draw evenly from both batteries, you have to switch the button to “II” setting. When the switch is in “I + I” setting, it will first draw power from the battery next to the camera operator and then switch to another. This allows you to make a hot swap battery to keep your camera and accessories constantly powered up. All modes should be changed before camera startup. When the power is drawn from the plate, the switch becomes inactive.
The V-RAPTOR sharkfin plate has two DC 11-17v, unrestricted, 7.2A maximum p-taps.
