SmallRig Dummy Battery Power Cable for D-Tap for Sony NP-FW50 6538

The SmallRig 6538 power cable replaces the NP-FW50 battery in a Sony and feeds it from a V-mount battery over D-Tap. The display shows the input voltage — green above 13.0 V, red as a low warning below. The housing is flame-retardant ABS.

The SmallRig 6538 is a power cable with an NP-FW50 dummy battery for Sony cameras. It goes in where the battery would sit and connects over a D-Tap plug to an external source, typically a V-mount battery. The camera then runs without a break, so there are no battery swaps during long recordings, livestreams or other extended shoots.

The built-in display shows the input voltage and the power status in real time. Above 13.0 V a green indicator stays on; below 13.0 V a red one lights or flashes as a low-power warning. If the D-Tap plug goes in the wrong way round, no voltage is shown and reverse-connection protection trips — turn the cable round and reconnect.

An upgraded chip keeps the camera from showing unknown-battery warnings. The dummy battery is moulded to the dimensions of the original, so it slides in and out easily. Protection covers overvoltage, overheating, overcharge and short circuit, and the housing is flame-retardant ABS. Certifications: FCC, CE, RoHS, ISED, RCM.
