Hypercore Slim Red

Utilizing Switronix’ award winning Hypercore technology, the Hypercore SLIM series was developed to provide the best in Lithium Ion technology for UAV, Handheld Gimbal and all other applications demanding a low-profile battery pack.  The Hypercore Slim series is the first line of slim battery packs capable of handling high draw loads, perfect for powering cameras ranging from RED to ARRI.   The packs are capable of handling draws of up to 148w (10A) without deterioration in service life nor operability.

This durable, 82wh v-mount Lithium Ion battery pack designed to power the RED cameras. Communicating directly with the camera, it delivers the exact percentage of remaining capacity to the camera's VF/LCD. The battery pack falls within the range of accepted capacity for air travel. The HyperCore series delivers the most value and ROI for those who require battery packs to stand the test of time and deliver unrivaled performance.  

The battery cells are incased in an over molded, rubberized housing, consistent with all Switronix’ battery packs for nearly 8 years.  The case provides additional protection against accidental impacts; and the rubber texture reduces the chance of the battery slipping out of your hands.

Each battery is outfitted with an accelerometer to detect motion, a similar component that is in mobile devices.  The accelerometer is tied to a clocking algorithm to gauge how long the battery is not in use.  One of the issues with all battery packs is self-discharge when not in use.  Hypercore battery packs will go to sleep or hibernate when there is no battery usage or movement after a 48hr period.  Once you pick up the battery, or the battery detects the slightest movement, the battery pack awakens, coming back to life at its maximum capacity.

As with all Switronix brick battery offerings, the Hypercore series have an integrated, unregulated P-tap connection on the side of the battery allowing you to power any device accepting 12-16.8vdc. 

Any charger within Switronix’ charger lineup will charge Hypercore, but the battery series is also the most cross platform, charger-compatible in the industry today.  The V-mount offerings (HC7S and HC7R) will also charge on RED, IDX and Sony, allowing you to maximize service life out of your current charger.
