Kastar NP-F980Exp 64.4 Wh camera battery

The Kastar NP-F980Exp is a lithium-ion power pack rated at 64.4 Wh and 8700 mAh. It targets videographers and photographers who need extended run-time for Sony Handycam camcorders and compatible LED panels. A built-in micro-USB port allows direct charging from a 5 V 2 A adapter, while a 5 V 2.1 A USB output lets the battery serve as a power bank for phones or accessories. Four on-board LEDs show remaining capacity at a glance.

Replaces legacy NP-F series packs

This unit replaces older NP-F530, NP-F550, NP-F570, NP-F750, NP-F770, NP-F930, NP-F950, NP-F960, NP-F970 and NP-F990 batteries in a single form factor. The jump is worth it when a shoot demands more watt-hours than those lower-capacity cells can deliver, or when the convenience of USB charging and power-bank duty outweighs the cost of carrying separate chargers and battery banks. It is not for users who need hot-swap dual-battery plates or V-mount capacity.

Fits L-series slots and LED lights

The battery slides into any L-series compartment found on the listed Sony CCD, DCR and TRV models as well as CN, VL, YN and GVM LED fixtures. Micro-USB charging frees up AC outlets on location, and the USB-A output can top up a monitor or wireless receiver without extra cables. Over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heat protection circuits guard both the cell and the connected gear. Builders who need a second simultaneous power source or a higher-voltage block should look elsewhere.
