The Hedbox UNIX-URSA Cine V-Mount Battery Plate is a professional-grade power management solution tailored for videographers and photographers using Blackmagic URSA cameras. It serves as a central power hub, allowing you to run your camera alongside multiple essential accessories like monitors, LED lights, and wireless transmitters from a single V-mount battery. While it offers exceptional durability and versatile connectivity, users should note that it requires specific screw mounting configurations, making it less of a 'tool-less' solution compared to some native quick-release systems.

No, the plate is designed for power distribution. You must charge your V-mount batteries using a dedicated external battery charger.
The USB port provides 5V at 2.1A, which is standard for charging phones and tablets.
The plate can function as a generic power distribution unit, but the included Molex cable is specific to URSA power inputs.
The unit acts as a passive distribution hub; it is 'on' as soon as a charged battery is locked into the V-mount.
It is made from high-quality aluminum alloy, tested for 10,000 cycles.
Ensure the D-Tap cable is fully seated and verify the V-mount battery has sufficient voltage (14V-16.8V).
Check that the plate is mounted tightly to the rig and ensure the V-lock mechanism is clear of any dirt or obstructions.
Verify the 12-pin Molex connection is correctly oriented and firmly plugged into the camera's power port.
This model is explicitly designed for Blackmagic URSA systems but can be adapted for other rigs using custom mounting brackets provided the screw hole alignment matches the universal hole pattern.
Keep the D-Tap pins free of debris and moisture. Wipe the aluminum body with a clean, dry microfiber cloth if exposed to dust. Regularly inspect the 12-pin Molex connector for bent pins to maintain a secure electrical path.
