The new BL-SF1 from Hawk-Woods is a 26V Dual B-Lok Shark Fin style power adaptor that allows users to connect two B-Lok (B-Mount) batteries to Arri cameras that require a B-Lok connection.
The adaptor supports hot-swapping between the two connected B-Lok batteries, providing not only increased combined capacity, but also uninterrupted power to the camera, so that users can swap batteries without stopping their shoot.
The BL-SF1 offers a range of outputs to power camera accessories. It includes a multi-directional D-Tap (12V regulated) port on the top of the adaptor, a USB-C Power Delivery output supporting 5V, 9V, 12V, and 15V, a two-pin Fischer (female) connection regulated at 24v, and a two-pin Lemo (female) connection regulated at 12v.
An intelligent LED system monitors battery status and current draw, flashing to alert users when it’s time to replace a battery, ensuring smooth, continuous operation.
