Caruba Sony NP-FW50 Full Decoding Dummy Batterij + 5V 2A dubbele USB-kabel
The Caruba Sony NP-FW50 Full Decoding Dummy Batterij + 5V 2A dubbele USB-kabel replaces the Sony NP-FW50 battery in your camera with a dummy on a lead to a USB charger or power bank. The camera stays on as long as you have power, instead of needing a battery change halfway through a take.

Highlights

• Replaces the Sony NP-FW50 battery
• Powered from a USB charger or power bank
• Fully decoded, the camera reads the battery normally
• Cable with two USB-A connectors
• Protected against short circuit and overload
• Cable length 210cm

Fully decoded
The dummy passes the camera the same data as a real battery. The camera keeps accepting it and you get no unrecognised-battery warning, which is what an undecoded dummy produces.

Power
You need a USB charger or power bank that supplies at least 2 amps. If the source gives less, the camera cuts out the moment it draws peak current, for instance when you start recording. With two connectors you draw power from two ports at once, which helps with a power bank that cannot supply enough from a single port.

Protection
The dummy contains protection against short circuit and overload. It acts before anything reaches the camera, which is the reason not to put a home-made solution between your power bank and your body.

What for
In the studio and on long location takes this is the difference between working through and stopping every hour. For run-and-gun work an ordinary battery is more practical, because here you are tethered to a cable.
