Product Description
The Newell D-Tap Power Adapter for LP-E6 is a dummy battery that powers Canon cameras from an external V-mount battery via D-Tap, for long recording sessions without swapping batteries.
It sits in the battery compartment in place of a traditional LP-E6 cell and draws power from a V-lock (V-mount) battery through its D-Tap socket. The optimal shape and dimensions fit snugly in the compartment, the angled D-Tap plug helps keep cables tidy, and the spiral cable saves space and reduces tangling. A Velcro strap is included to keep cables organised.
Ideal for: video creators recording long broadcasts, timelapses, webinars, and live streams who want to power an LP-E6 Canon camera from a larger external battery.
Small camera batteries need frequent swapping during long recordings, interrupting the shoot. Drawing from a larger V-mount battery via D-Tap instead extends run time significantly, and D-Tap external power sources are increasingly common in film and photography for exactly this reason.
