The DigitalFoto NPF3-SE Dual-Side Dummy Battery is designed to simplify power distribution across your camera rig. Built to replace a standard Sony NP-F battery, it provides a shared 8V output while enabling you to power multiple devices at once.

With its dual-sided design, cabling can be routed more cleanly across your setup, reducing clutter and improving balance. The system is powered via a secure 5525 locking DC input, with both D-Tap and USB-C cables included, making it easy to integrate with common power sources such as V-mount batteries or USB-C PD supplies. An additional USB-C output provides up to 12V power, allowing you to run a third device without adding extra batteries.

Who this is for

• Filmmakers building compact, efficient camera rigs
• Content creators using NP-F powered monitors or accessories
• Operators looking to reduce cable clutter and power multiple devices from one source
• Anyone working with V-mount or D-Tap power systems who needs flexible distribution

At a glance

• Dual-sided NP-F dummy battery design for cleaner rigging
• Power multiple devices from a single battery slot
• 8V 8A shared output
• 5525 locking DC input for secure power connection
• USB-C output up to 12V for additional device powering
• Includes D-Tap and USB-C cables

How it works

The NPF3-SE replaces a standard NP-F battery in your device, such as a monitor or light. Instead of holding internal cells, it draws power from an external source via the 5525 locking input.

Included cables allow you to connect to:

• D-Tap outputs (commonly found on V-mount batteries)
• USB-C power sources

Once connected, the dummy battery delivers regulated 8V output to your device. At the same time, the integrated USB-C output can supply up to 12V to an additional accessory, helping centralise your power setup.

Why choose this product

Traditional NP-F setups often require multiple batteries or separate power solutions for each device. This system reduces that complexity by centralising power distribution. The locking connector improves reliability on set, especially when rigs are moving or handheld. The dual-sided design also helps maintain a neater build, which is particularly useful on gimbals or compact camera setups.

Ideal uses

• Powering on-camera monitors while feeding additional accessories
• Streamlining handheld or gimbal rigs
• Reducing battery swaps during long shoots
• Integrating NP-F devices into V-mount powered setups
