Munich-based power and accessory maker, bebob, has added a full family of chargers and power accessories for the recently introduced compact and rugged Vmicro (V-mount) and Amicro (Gold-mount compatible) 14.4V battery packs. Adhering to the principle that size matters—especially when operator-held—the 45Wh, 98Wh and 150Wh Lithium-ion packs, not only offer the lowest weight and dimensions in class, but now add the benefits of suitably sized fast chargers and an array of accessories for un-matched versatility.

Munich battery manufacturer bebob and ARRI have cooperated in order to meet the increasing power consumption of modern cameras and lighting with a sustainable solution. In close consultation with ARRI, the bebob engineers developed the B- Mount – a new battery mount system that fulfills the power demands of today’s equipment while providing maximum flexibility at the same time. ARRI will be using the B-Mount for all its future cameras.

In keeping with the industry’s move toward lighter and more versatile gear, Munich-based power and accessory maker bebob, introduces Vmicro (V-mount) and Amicro (gold-mount compatible) 14.4V battery packs. Both mount styles feature a choice of 43Wh, 98Wh and 147Wh versions—each with the lowest weight and footprint in its class.
