Ulanzi BG5 Handheld Battery Grip 92.16 Wh, 100 W PD

The Ulanzi BG5 is a handle-shaped power bank—you hold it in your hand like a grip while using it to power a light, camera, or laptop. Its 92.16 Wh capacity will keep a 100W COB light running at full power for about 43 minutes and a 65W light for over an hour and a quarter. The USB-C PD 3.0 output (up to 100 W ) works bidirectionally, so it charges itself quickly as well. It features a 1/4" thread on both the top and bottom. It weighs 585 g, and with its 92.16 Wh capacity, it fits within the carry-on luggage limit for airplanes.

92.16 Wh for the entire shoot

The 92.16 Wh capacity will power a 100W COB light for about 43 minutes at full brightness and a 65W light for over an hour and a quarter. That’s enough for interviews, product shoots, and evening scenes without having to search for an outlet.

100 W Output via USB-C PD

The USB-C port with PD 3.0 delivers up to 100 W —enough to power a light, camera, tablet, or laptop. Charging works both ways, so the handle recharges itself noticeably faster than a standard power bank.

Handle and power source in one

The handle’s shape keeps the setup stable during handheld shooting while simultaneously powering whatever’s attached to it. This means you don’t have to carry a power bank in your pocket and run a cable from it across your entire setup.

1/4" thread at the top and bottom

There’s a 1/4" thread on top with a locking pin to prevent rotation, and another 1/4" thread on the bottom for a tripod. Between them is an eyelet for a strap. This allows the handle to snap into the center of the setup instead of hanging off the edge.

Five-LED battery level indicator

Pressing the button lights up the indicator LEDs: four light up at 76–100%, three at 51–75%, two at 26–50%, one at 6–25%, and one flashing below 5%. You don’t have to guess whether you’ll run out of power during your shoot.

Fits in a backpack and on a plane

The handle slides easily into a side pocket of your backpack. The 92.16 Wh capacity is below the 100 Wh limit that airlines allow in the cabin—so you can take it with you on your travels.

*Rules vary by airline; be sure to check them before your flight.

585 grams—light enough not to weigh you down

Dimensions: 196 × 53 × 44.5 mm; weight: 585 g. The shape is designed for a comfortable grip, so your hand won’t hurt even after prolonged low-angle shooting.
