WHAT BATTERIES ARE RECOMMENDED FOR THE LS C300D II?
Last Updated 4 years ago
1x or 2x 190Wh+ 14.4V 15A V-Mount or AB Gold Mount (3-Stud) Batteries
You will need two compatible batteries to achieve maximum output with the LS C300d II via DC Battery power. However, the technology in the LS C300d II also allows you to use only one compatible battery to power the LS C300d II up to half of its maximum output.
To power high wattage LED lights, we recommend batteries that are rated to be capable of withstanding a constant amount of high power draws. Therefore, for best results, we recommend using batteries that are capable of continuously discharging 14-15 Amps, to provide adequate headroom for the power draw. We also recommend batteries that are 190Wh or larger to provide adequate run times.
You should also be using 14.4V V-Mount or Gold Mount (3-Stud) batteries depending on the battery plates that are on your respective control box. Using higher voltage batteries will likely result in damage to the light, and will cause malfunctions that will require internal components to be repaired. Officially tested batteries include:
IDX Duo C198
IDX Cue-D300
SWIT PB-R290S
FXLion BP-190S / AN-190A
