Overview

The SWIT MATRIX-S8 is a professional-grade, 8-channel simultaneous V-mount wall charger designed for broadcast television stations, rental houses, and production facilities requiring high-capacity battery charging solutions. This ultra-fast charger delivers 100W per channel and supports both 14.4V and 28.8V V-mount battery formats, making it an ideal choice for operations managing diverse battery inventories. The unit is engineered to significantly reduce charging time while maintaining battery health through intelligent power management.

Power Output and Charging Specifications

The charger provides a maximum total power output of 900W, distributed across eight independent charging channels. For SWIT 14.4V batteries with capacities of 160Wh or greater, each channel delivers 16.8V DC at 6A maximum current, producing 100W per channel output. For SWIT 28.8V batteries with similar capacities, each channel provides 33.6V DC at 3A maximum current, also yielding 100W per channel. Third-party batteries receive 16.8V DC at 3A maximum current, generating 50W per channel. The charger accepts AC input power ranging from 100V to 240V at 50/60Hz, enabling global compatibility across different electrical standards.

Charging Performance

A significant advantage of this charger is its ability to charge 160Wh batteries in approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, representing up to 60 percent time savings compared to conventional chargers. The simultaneous 8-channel charging capability means operators can maintain continuous battery rotation without waiting for sequential charging cycles to complete. This efficiency is particularly valuable in high-demand production environments where equipment downtime directly impacts workflow and project schedules.

Display and Monitoring Systems

The MATRIX-S8 features dual 3.5-inch color LCD displays that provide real-time monitoring of each charging channel. These displays show charging progress, charging current, output voltage, and battery cycle count information for continuous system transparency. Large LED charging indicators supplement the LCD displays, allowing operators to quickly assess charging status from a distance without approaching the unit directly, facilitating efficient management in busy production facilities.

Installation and Mounting Options

The charger offers flexible installation configurations suitable for various facility layouts and space requirements. It can be mounted directly on walls for compact facility installations or installed within standard 19-inch rack frameworks for integrated broadcast infrastructure. This versatility ensures compatibility with both standalone production setups and comprehensive broadcast station installations.

Design and Construction

Built as a professional-grade charger, the MATRIX-S8 incorporates robust engineering suitable for continuous operational demands. The unit is engineered to handle the rigorous power delivery requirements of modern broadcast and production environments. The intelligent multi-channel architecture allows independent operation of each charging port, preventing power fluctuations in one channel from affecting others.

Application and Industry Use

This charger is specifically engineered for professional broadcasting, television production, video rental services, and production houses that operate with substantial battery inventories. The ability to simultaneously charge eight batteries of different voltage specifications makes it invaluable for operations supporting mixed equipment fleets. Production teams can maintain constant battery availability while maximizing operational efficiency and minimizing equipment idle time during charging cycles.
