Kinefinity PD Hybrid Dual Charger​

I had no idea this thing existed. I've been looking for a USB-C charger for my BP-U batteries when traveling to cut down of the volume of stuff you have to cart with you. This thing is tiny compared to my Swit dual charger and runs of a USB-C wall wart (60w min PD required).

Winner Winner Chicken dinner.

Couple of notes:
- It also charges L-Series batts
- It may be best to put something under each battery as they hang over the edge of the charger by some margin. The ones in the photo are BP-U60 and it seems to grip fine and charge, but it is only friction on the charging pins holding it.

Agreed. I love the concept of USB-C charging for the new modern world we live in.

I picked up a USB-C charger for traveling with some of my newer V mount batteries that allow for it. I have a few Smallrig Pro V mounts and some Core SWX Nano V mount batteries that also allow for it.

With this charger I can charge 4 at the same time, just like with my big old quad bay charger that's WAY bigger, and save a ton of room packing.

Yup - even apple has been brought (kicking and screaming) into the USB-C world.
