KineGrip

KineGrip provides not only power to KineRAW-MINI, but also provides full control. The battery inside of handgrip is Interchangeable, and provides around 90 minutes of powering KineRAW-MINI. KineRAW-MINI can switch handgrip battery and external power like broadcast battery or DC IN, smoothly and hot-swap, like UPS. The dials and buttons on KineGrip can control Iris (if EF lens), ISO directly, and other camera parameters.

1. Record/Stop;
2. Direct tuning ISO by dial control;
3. Direct tuning Iris by dial control (when electronic EF lens mounted);
4. Zoom Focusing: Full/1:1/1:2/1:8；
5. Full image screen/Image with parameter;
6. Multi-function navigation buttons.
7. Interchangeable battery (Standard battery);
8. Sustain around 90mins (using new battery holder with Panasonic 3400mA batteries triplet for New MINI, using 21Wh EN-EL15A for old MINI);
9. In-Camera display voltage value, and Warning threshold;
10. UPS function when connected with external power source like broadcast battery, or AC-DC power. So that you change broadcast battery or sidegrip battery without power down camera.

For KineMINI-4K, the great thing of KineGrip for KineMINI™ 4K can use industry standard 18650 batteries. KineGrip with New Battery Holder must use three 18650 batteries with protection one time. Battery holder can be easily operated for batteries replacement. For KineRAW-MINI, the battery model is EN-EL15A (21Wh).

1. KineGrip as sidegrip;
2. For KineMINI, new Battery holder for three protected 18650 batteries, which is printed by 3D tech;
3. For KineRAW-MINI, Battery holder for EN-EL15 (Since KineRAW-MINI is obsolete, we DO NOT ship Battery Holder for EN-EL15 any more).

As of 18650 batteries which KineMINI uses, guidelines are following:

1. Must use 18650 battery with protection: Strongly recommend to employ 18650 batteries with 3MOS protection circuits. 3MOS protection circuits: it can protect 18650 Li batteries effectively when voltage of battery drops much;
2. Must use three batteries as triplet: charging, usage, storage;
3. Never rip off the thin film around the 18650 batteries: these film are to solid the protection circuits with batteries.
4. Do Not charge batteries with large current: avoid charging current over 1A. Recommend NiteCore I4 charger from Kinefinity Store. It takes around 4~6 hrs if charging a 3400mA battery to full state.
