Economic and Enhanced

Although relatively low in cost, compared to the cameras they power, high-quality Li-Ion battery systems appear expensive compared to some of the cheaper options available. However, low-quality Li-Ion batteries can fail within a year and provide poor value for money. For this reason PAG has introduced a highly economic Li-Ion battery that incorporates enhanced features, and maintains the high quality and safety standards for which PAG is renowned.

The PAG L95e embodies advanced Li-Ion cell technology that combines a 95 watt-hour capacity with a weight of only 745g. The result is increased run-time for both a camcorder and a light up to 35W. Two L95e batteries will fit easily into your camera bag and provide enough power for a whole day’s shooting, with most camera and lighting set-ups.

PAG provides its new low-cost L95e Li-Ion battery in PAGlok and V-Mount formats.

Quality and Safety

PAG has incorporated many levels of protection within the L95e to ensure that it is one of the safest Li-Ion batteries available. These features help prevent the damaging processes that reduce capacity; and in combination with proprietary charging techniques, ensure a longer battery cycle life. PAG is able to offer an impressive warranty of 18 months on the new L95e.

Quality branded cells, such as those utilised by the PAG L95e, are a vital prerequisite to the creation of a safe Li-Ion battery. The battery's internal protection circuit is coated with Parylene, the premier conformal coating, to protect against the results of severe mechanical abuse to the cell pack.

Power & Time Circle Display

The L95e incorporates a new capacity indicator called the Power & Time Circle. It uses five LEDs to display charge status in terms of percentage. When the display button is pressed each LED that is lit represents approximately 20% of available capacity.

The display is also capable of indicating an estimate of remaining run-time, on-load:

A second button press activates the time
display. The ‘HRS’ LED flashes twice.



The number of hours is indicated by the
number of lit LEDs: 2 LEDs = 2 hours.



The ‘MINS’ LED then flashes twice.



The number of minutes is indicated:
3 LEDs = 30 mins.

Capacity in the Viewfinder

The V-Mount L95e, when used to power certain Sony cameras, will provide a percentage display of available capacity in the camera viewfinder.

No Service Charge

The new 5 LED display maintains its level of accuracy after repeated partial discharge cycles, and the battery does not require a periodic 'service charge' (full discharge/charge cycle) to re-establish accuracy.

Self-Recovery

If the battery has been shut down by its protection circuit it can be recovered by simply removing it from the load and pressing the display button, provided the battery still retains some charge.

Charging

To achieve the optimum number of discharge cycles the PAG L95e should always be charged using a PAG charger.

PAG offers low-cost chargers that complement the new L95e. The PAG Freelancer (PAGlok) and PAG V2 (V-Mount) are two-channel sequential chargers, small enough to fit in your camera bag. Alternatively, the following PAG chargers can be used: the V-Mount compatible V4-iPC and new PAG Cube or the PAGlok compatible AR124PLD and Quasar.

A charge adaptor is required to charge L95e batteries via the front PP90 sockets of other PAG all-chemistry chargers. Most PAG chargers in the field, except for V-Mount models, will require a software upgrade to charge the new L95e.
