Unlock All-Day Power for Your SmallHD Monitor
Say goodbye to battery anxiety and hello to uninterrupted on-set performance. The SmallHD DCA5 LEMO to D-Tap Kit is the essential power solution for professional cinematographers, camera assistants, and focus pullers who rely on their SmallHD 500 or 700 series monitors. In a fast-paced production environment, the last thing you need to worry about is swapping small, consumer-style LP-E6 batteries. This kit elegantly solves that problem by allowing you to integrate your field monitor directly into your camera rig's professional power ecosystem.
This comprehensive kit provides a seamless bridge between your monitor and high-capacity power sources like V-Mount or Gold Mount batteries. The core of the system is the DCA5 adapter, a precisely engineered dummy battery that securely clicks into one of the LP-E6 battery slots on the back of your monitor. It features a robust LEMO connector, ensuring a stable and reliable connection that won't accidentally disconnect during a critical take. This adapter converts a wide range of input voltages into a clean, regulated output, safeguarding your monitor's sensitive electronics from power fluctuations and ensuring a consistent, flicker-free image.
Included in the kit is a generous 36-inch (91cm) LEMO to D-Tap power cable. This length provides ample flexibility for clean cable management and versatile rigging, whether your monitor is mounted on-camera, on a director's cage, or a focus puller's station. By centralizing your power distribution through a single D-Tap source, you streamline your build, reduce weight, and dramatically increase your monitor's runtime from minutes to hours. This allows you to focus on what truly matters: capturing the perfect shot. Elevate your workflow, simplify your rig, and power your creative vision with the reliability and professionalism that only the SmallHD DCA5 Kit can provide.
