Q: 1. Does this include the power cord?

A: Thank you to those who answered. // Also, if there are any other technical or product related questions, feel free to contact us directly at any time at support@dracobroadcast.com.

Q: 2. Why am I getting a voltage reading of 16.1v? Doesn't the product name say 14.8v?

A: Because batteries rarely operate at exactly the voltage listed. The listed voltage is more or less the average voltage. The drop in voltage output is how a device tells how much charge is left in a battery. I wouldnt be the least bit concerned about a battery reading 1.3V above its listed voltage when fully charged.

Q: 3. What are the dimensions of this battery? it says 6.7 x 3.9 x 1.5 but it seems to be the dimensions of the regular battery not the compact (regular is stated as 6.69 x 3.94 x 1.85 ), can someone please elaborate on the real size? mainly the hight?

A: Thank you Dustin. That is almost exactly what I got when I measured it -- 4.9 x 3.5 x 2 (126 x 89 x 52 mm) // Also, if there are any other technical or product related questions, feel free to contact us directly at any time at support@dracobroadcast.com.

Q: 4. Can this battery be charged while attached to the light while the light is plugged in with wall power cable?

Q: 8. I own an Arri Alexa Classic will this battery work? What's the max amp draw from this battery?

A: Based on the technical information for that camera, I will say the battery should work to power that camera, and that further, it should power the camera for about an hour. I cannot guarantee this, and we make no warranty that it will work, but it does appear as though it will not be a problem. // Also, if there are any other technical or product related questions, feel free to contact us directly at any time at support@dracobroadcast.com.

Q: 10. Does this battery come with a charger? Or is the recommended accessory shown (Dual V-Mount charger) just a luxury item?
