The PAGlink Micro Charger is ideal when you want to travel light and charge PAG V-Mount batteries, individually or linked. This ultra-compact, inexpensive charger and its accessories are small enough to fit in any camera bag. The charger accepts 5-20V DC input, and can be powered from a variety of sources, such as worldwide AC supplies (via its AC to DC adaptor), a 12V vehicle battery and even a USB charger. The accessories to achieve this are included, making the Micro Charger the ideal travel charging kit for broadcast batteries.

At the end of a shoot, simply link your batteries and connect them to the charger. The next day, they will be fully charged.

The charge status of each battery is shown on its individual display. The most-discharged batteries are given priority until all the batteries are in a similar state of charge; they are then fully-charged simultaneously.

The Micro Charger can be powered using the Power Supply Unit included, which accepts 100-240V AC input, converted to low-voltage DC. Four attachable power plugs are included that are compatible with AC outlets in the UK, Europe, USA/Japan and Australia.

The charger can also be powered from a 12V vehicle battery, via the dashboard lighter socket, using the in-car DC power lead supplied. Charge times will be equivalent to those achieved when the charger is powered from an AC supply. As a back-up option, the charger can be powered using a 2A USB wall-plug charger via the USB DC power lead included in this kit. The charge time will be approximately 10 hours for one 99Wh battery when using the USB option.

Battery Connector:
V-Mount

For Charging the Following Batteries:
Mini PAGlink
PAGlink
PAG non-linking.

Linked Charging:
Batteries can be of any rated capacity and in any state-of-charge. To fully charge batteries in 12 hours, from fully discharged, it is recommended that the total capacity connected to the Micro Charger does not exceed 300Wh (see Typical Battery Charge Times below). Each battery’s state of charge is displayed on its individual display. The most discharged batteries receive charge first. When all the batteries are in a similar state of charge (within 20%) they will charge simultaneously, until fully-charged. Fully charged batteries stop accepting charge automatically and independently of other batteries. Batteries may be left on the charger to top-up until required.

NOTE: PAGlink and Mini PAGlink V-Mount batteries cannot be linked.
The current is shared between the batteries. To charge an individual battery in the fastest time, it is best to connect only that battery to the charger.
