Powering the SmallHD FOCUS
This adapter lets a SmallHD FOCUS monitor run from a Sony NP-FZ100 battery instead of its barrel input. It is aimed at camera operators who need longer runtimes on location without carrying bulky power bricks. The faux-battery form factor slots directly into the monitor’s battery compartment for a clean rig. No extra cables or mounting plates are required.
Sustained load behaviour
The NP-FZ100 chemistry delivers stable voltage throughout its discharge curve, so the monitor maintains consistent brightness during extended takes. Unlike smaller internal cells, the larger capacity reduces the frequency of battery swaps on multi-hour shoots. Heat buildup stays low because the adapter has no active electronics to generate waste energy. Reliability stays high across repeated cycles.
Installation and common issues
Slide the adapter into the FOCUS battery slot until it clicks, then insert a charged NP-FZ100 cell into the adapter’s rear cavity. The only common problem is forgetting to seat the battery fully, which causes intermittent power loss. Dirt on the gold contacts can also break the circuit, so wipe them occasionally. No firmware or menu settings are involved.

Questions about this item
Does the adapter add any heat or noise when the FOCUS monitor runs all day on an NP-FZ100 battery?
The passive barrel-to-NP-FZ100 adapter has no electronics or fan, so it adds no heat or audible noise during continuous operation.
What must I already own to use this adapter with my SmallHD FOCUS monitor?
You need a SmallHD FOCUS monitor with a barrel power input and a Sony NP-FZ100 battery or compatible power source.
Will the adapter work if I keep using my original SmallHD battery plate alongside it?
The adapter replaces the stock battery plate; it does not operate simultaneously with the original plate on the same monitor.
