Overview

The Wooden Camera Micro Battery Slide Gold Mount for BGH1 is purpose-built to solve the power challenge of the Panasonic Lumix BGH1's box-style form factor. Unlike traditional camera bodies with integrated battery bays, the BGH1 relies on external power, and this slide provides a clean, self-contained solution. The adjustable gold mount micro battery plate locks batteries securely in place, while the regulated 12V output ensures consistent voltage delivery through a 3-pin LEMO compatible connector—protecting the camera's electronics from the voltage sag that occurs as batteries discharge.

Beyond powering the camera, the Micro Battery Slide doubles as a power distribution hub with its two D-Tap ports rated at 5.8 amps. This allows operators to run monitors, wireless video transmitters, or follow focus systems directly from the same battery without stacking additional power accessories onto the rig. The built-in digital fuse adds a layer of protection rarely found in battery plates at this size, and the reset button means a power fault on set is a quick fix rather than a shoot-stopping problem. Mounting via the standard 3/8-16 thread keeps integration straightforward on cages and base plates from Wooden Camera or third-party manufacturers.

D-Tap Ports: Features two 5.8 Amps D-Tap ports for accessory power, and a digital fuse which cuts off accessory outputs, should the user exceed the set current for accessories, while leaving the camera powered
