When you want to add a V-lock mounting kit to your gear, the ANDYCINE Pocket V-Lock Assembly Kit is just the item. Small enough to fit in your pocket, this compact and lightweight kit features aluminum alloy construction and includes a female V-lock receiver (without power connections) and a male V-lock wedge, as well as a plethora of mounting screws. This combination allows you to mount the receiver on your cage, a cheese plate, or a variety of other mounting platforms (not included) with 1/4"-20, M3, or M4 holes. Likewise, you can mount the included V-lock wedge onto any device or accessory that you want to securely and rapidly mount or unmount.

Supporting up to 22 pounds, the V-lock receiver features 21 attachment points and accepts standard V-mount batteries, as well as devices with a standard male V-lock wedge. This allows you to configure your camera or gimbal rig, or even an on-camera/handheld monitor rig, for the most comfortable balance and weight distribution. Please note that neither the male V-lock wedge nor the receiver pass power, as they have no electrical connections, but you can use your battery's accessory power ports when desired.
