  • Tilta BLK-22 4-bay charger: top up Lumix batteries over USB-C

    The verdict

    A handy four-slot charger for Panasonic BLK-22 batteries — OEM or third-party — that runs off a single USB-C port.

    What’s good
    ✓  Charges any BLK-22 cell (OEM or third party); they snap into the top
    ✓  Included lid keeps batteries from falling out in a bag
    ✓  Light (~0.4 lb), single USB-C, up to 45W
    ✓  Status lights (green / orange / red); slots 1–2 charge faster, 3–4 slower
    Worth knowing
    ·  45W shared across four bays — use slots 1–2 when you want the quickest charge

    It’s easier than juggling individual USB-C batteries — just tuck any cell in and it’s charging. Tilta makes versions for other camera brands too.

  • Sirui Universal Power Bank Clamp: lock any battery down

    The verdict

    A screw-lock clamp that grips any power bank tight — none of the spring-clamp anxiety about a heavy bank slipping — and mounts to a cage, clamp or accessory.

    What’s good
    ✓  Knob locks down on the bank (2.17″–3.35″ wide)
    ✓  Holds heavy banks (like a big Anker) with no worry about dropping
    ✓  Two screw slots plus 1/4″-20 holes to mount it anywhere
    ✓  More secure than a spring-loaded holder
    Worth knowing
    ·  Wider or thicker banks can stick out the top a little

    It’s what powers my slider rig — the knob makes it easy to trust with a heavy pack.
