A Compact Charger for Professional Video Production
Professional V-Mount batteries are widely used with compatible cinema cameras, broadcast camcorders, monitors and video-production equipment. Keeping these batteries charged is essential for uninterrupted filming.
Traditional professional battery charging stations can be bulky and inconvenient to transport, especially when you only need to charge one battery at a time.
The BiXPower ACC-16VMC offers a simpler approach. Its compact charger body, detachable AC power cord and dedicated V-Mount charging connector make it easy to pack alongside your camera equipment.
It is particularly useful for freelance videographers, independent filmmakers, documentary crews, traveling camera operators and production teams who want an additional charging option.
Direct V-Mount Battery Charging
The ACC-16VMC uses a V-Mount charging connector designed to connect directly to compatible professional V-Mount lithium-ion batteries.
This eliminates the need for a separate D-Tap charging cable when the battery supports charging through its V-Mount electrical contacts.
Simply connect the charger to a compatible battery, then connect the AC power cord to a suitable wall outlet.
Important Compatibility Information
This charger is intended for compatible 14.4V / 14.8V nominal lithium-ion V-Mount batteries that require a 16.8V charging voltage and accept charging through their V-Mount contacts.
Not every V-Mount battery supports the same charging method. Some smart batteries require dedicated communication or proprietary charging equipment. Confirm electrical and mechanical compatibility before use.
Worldwide 100–240V AC Input
The charger accepts a wide AC input range of 100–240V, 50/60Hz, making it suitable for use with compatible electrical outlets in many countries.
For international filming and travel, the wide input range eliminates the need for a separate voltage transformer in most standard mains-power environments.
A suitable plug adapter may still be required depending on the destination country's electrical outlet configuration.
Dedicated 16.8V Lithium-Ion Battery Charging
The ACC-16VMC provides a maximum charging voltage of 16.8V and a rated maximum output current of 1.8A.
Unlike an ordinary constant-voltage laptop power adapter, a compatible lithium-ion battery charger is designed to manage the charging voltage and current for the intended battery chemistry and cell configuration.
During normal lithium-ion charging, the charger initially limits the charging current as required. As battery voltage approaches the final charging voltage, the charging current decreases toward the end of the charging process.
The 1.8A maximum charging current makes this charger a practical choice for batteries that accept this charging rate, particularly when compact size and portability are more important than maximum charging speed.
Important: This charger is designed for compatible 4S lithium-ion batteries. Do not use it to charge 24V or 36V batteries, LiFePO4 batteries, lead-acid batteries or batteries requiring a different charging voltage or charging profile.
Simple LED Charging Status
The built-in charging indicator makes it easy to check charging progress without complicated settings.
| Indicator |
Charging Status |
| Red LED |

| Green LED |

A green indicator without a properly connected battery should not be interpreted as confirmation that a battery is fully charged.
How Long Does It Take to Charge a V-Mount Battery?
Charging time depends on battery capacity, remaining charge, battery condition and charging-current limitations.
The following table provides approximate planning estimates for compatible batteries starting near empty, based on a maximum 1.8A charging current.
| Battery Capacity |
Estimated Charging Time |
| 5Ah |
Approx. 3.5–4.5 hours |
| 7Ah |
Approx. 5–6 hours |
| 10Ah |
Approx. 6.5–8 hours |
Estimates are illustrative, not guaranteed. The constant-voltage charging stage, battery management system, temperature and initial charge level can affect actual charging time.
Ideal Applications
- Charging compatible professional V-Mount / V-Lock camera batteries
- Portable charging for location filming
- Traveling documentary and video-production crews
- Backup charger for camera equipment kits
- Independent filmmakers and freelance videographers
- Studio battery charging where a multi-bay station is unnecessary
- Replacement charger for supported 14.4V / 14.8V lithium-ion V-Mount batteries

How to Charge Your V-Mount Battery
- Verify that your battery supports 16.8V lithium-ion charging at up to 1.8A through its V-Mount contacts.
- Make sure the battery and charger connectors are clean, dry and undamaged.
- Connect the V-Mount charging connector securely to the compatible battery.
- Connect the charger to a suitable AC power outlet.
- Check the LED indicator. Red normally indicates active charging.
- When the indicator changes to green under normal charging conditions, charging is complete.
- Disconnect the AC power and remove the charger from the battery after charging.
Charge batteries in a dry, well-ventilated location on a suitable nonflammable surface. Do not charge damaged, swollen, overheated or otherwise abnormal batteries.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this charger work with any V-Mount battery?
A: No. It is intended for compatible 14.4V / 14.8V lithium-ion V-Mount batteries that accept 16.8V charging at up to 1.8A through the V-Mount interface. Some batteries require proprietary charging systems or communication.
Q: Can it charge a 99Wh or 150Wh-class V-Mount battery?
A: It may charge batteries in these capacity classes if their chemistry, charging voltage, charging current and V-Mount charging interface are compatible. Battery capacity alone does not establish compatibility.
Q: Is this a fast charger?
A: This is a compact 1.8A portable charger intended for convenient charging. Larger professional chargers may offer higher charging currents.
