PAGLINK FOR BROADCAST, PRODUCTION & CINEMA PAGlink is a revolutionary and innovative system of superior, intelligent V-Mount Li-Ion batteries, that can be linked for charge or discharge. The system has been designed after consultation with leading camera manufacturers and broadcasting organisations to meet the demands of modern broadcast acquisition, video production and digital cinematography. • Up to 8 batteries, in any state of charge, can be linked for charge or discharge.
LINK MULTIPLE INTELLIGENT BATTERIES PAGlink offers the smallest and lightest V-Mount batteries in the industry, with the highest energy density. They are available in two capacities and with a choice of run-time and capacity indication. The PL96 has a flight-friendly rating of 96Wh and is ideal for broadcasters as well as frequent flyers. The PL150 has a capacity of 150Wh and is ideal for cinematographers and rental companies. It has an air travel allowance of 2 per person.
Linked batteries form a network and communicate with each other The combined state of charge is communicated to the camera Batteries are linked intelligently and discharge together using available power efficiently Power is delivered via a separate power rail The battery connected to the camera becomes the Master. It communicates with the camera and controls the delivery of power. The Master automatically determines which batteries to bring online for discharge, based on their state-of-charge.
LINK-UP & POWER-UP WITH PAGLINK Linking batteries enables a higher current-draw for power-hungry camera set-ups that include multiple accessories such as a monitor, a transmission device and a camera light. Linked batteries will supply up to 12A, while individual batteries offer 8A. Sharing the load between batteries prolongs their overall life and provides a better return on investment. PAGlink PL96 batteries are guaranteed for 3 years, and PL150 batteries for 2 years.

ACCURATE RUN-TIME AT YOUR FINGERTIPS Run-Time & Capacity indication All PAGlink batteries feature built-in run-time and capacity indication. You can choose between the more convenient numeric display of the PAGlink Time Battery, or the 5-light indicator of the lower-cost e-series battery. Both show battery capacity as a percentage. When batteries are linked, the display provides run-time for the total of all the batteries, and capacity for the individual packs.
Time Battery: Numeric Run-Time & Capacity Display When the batteries are linked, run-time is shown for the total of all connected batteries, while capacity is shown for each individual battery.
CHOOSE THE MOST CONVENIENT CAPACITY FOR YOU Battery Capacity & Air Transportation The PAGlink system has been conceived so that you can fly with all the high-capacity Li-Ion power that you need. Batteries that have flight-friendly capacities of 96Wh can be linked when you reach your location to create 192Wh or 288Wh batteries. Individual batteries that have capacities above 160Wh are banned from passenger flights.
MORE OUTPUTS FOR ACCESSORIES PAGlink has an innovative approach to powering camera accessories. Rather than providing outputs that are built into the batteries, PAGlink offers a separate, user-configurable power distribution plate called the PAGlink PowerHub. This lightweight, low-profile accessory draws power from the linking contacts of PAGlink batteries. It enables you to power multiple 12V DC camera accessories such as a monitor, a transmission device and a camera light.

FAST, EFFICIENT, LINKED BATTERY CHARGING PAGlink has consigned one-battery-per-channel-charging to history. Linked charging was developed by PAG for the PAGlink system. Now your batteries can be stacked for overnight charging on one compact charger, putting an end to midnight battery swapping. It reduces the number of chargers required to manage your batteries, enabling you to travel light andsave money. Up to 8 PAGlink batteries can be linked for charging on each position of your charger.
ULTRA-COMPACT AND LOW-COST TRAVEL CHARGER The PAGlink Micro Charger is the worlds smallest and most versatile broadcast battery charging kit. When you want to travel really light and charge PAGlink batteries on location, the Micro Charger is the answer. Up to 4 linked PAGlink batteries can be charged simultaneously using one Micro Charger. One fully discharged 96Wh battery will be fully charged in approximately 4 hours. Two 96Wh batteries will be fully-charged in 8 hours.
MANAGE YOUR BATTERY INVENTORY WITH EASE The PAGlink V-Mount Battery Reader enables you to access data stored by the battery’s microprocessor. With this knowledge, you can track usage and manage your batteries more efficiently, whatever the size of your inventory. The Reader is a compact and lightweight tool that you slide onto the contacts of the battery to display data via an easy-to-understand, alphanumeric display. The first menu item is the battery state-of-charge, shown as a percentage.
