“They [HC-98RED] charge fast, they’re lightweight, the LCD screens also make them easy to use and work with, especially when we need to check how much battery is left.”
“We’ve put these batteries to the harshest tests with many shoots traveling back and forth in and out of the country all without a hitch rolling on multiple Sony FS7 and FS5 shoulder rigs.”
“I shoot a lot of work handheld; most of my clients like my handheld work, so having small and lightweight batteries are a must.”
“I also love the style of the Hypercores, very clean and the LCD screen makes keeping an eye on battery life very easy.”
“Lightweight, powerful (about 1 hour and 15 minutes with the RED Scarlet-W), great quality built and air transport safe! That’s important for us because every now and then we are filming projects all over the world and need batteries which we can trust.”
“They’re [Hypercore 98R] still giving exactly the same amount of battery life as when they were brand new.”
“We chose the Hypercore SLIM series batteries because we travel so much — it’s critical that our power solution is safe and legal for air travel. We also really appreciate the minimal weight and durability.”
“The SLIM’s are amazing for gimbal use and handheld situations when I want a small, light footprint. I’ve seen very limited, if any, effect on the battery life performance over the past year of using them.”
“The Hypercores are great because they feed the battery percentage to the camera….plus my AC on the first job they worked on noted the estimated remaining runtime was very helpful for him to monitor.”
“It started with the PowerBase and my time-lapse addiction for running 24+ hour timelapses that showed the movement of tides and mountain weather. But then it grew into using Core SWX gear for everything with the HyperCore solution for RED and the V-Mount charging setups.”
