What are custom camera power solutions?

Custom camera power solutions are battery systems and power distribution setups designed specifically for your camera equipment and filming workflow, rather than generic one-size-fits-all options.

Why choose custom over generic camera batteries?

Custom power solutions provide precise voltage matching, clean cable management, reliability on set, and eliminate compatibility issues that can cause shoot delays or equipment damage.

What cameras work with custom power systems?

We build custom power solutions for all professional cameras including RED Komodo, Sony FX3, Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K, and many others. Each system is designed for your specific equipment.

Why Custom Power Solutions Are a Game-Changer for Filmmakers

In filmmaking, there’s nothing worse than watching your battery die mid-shot — especially if you were on take #11 and the actor finally nailed it. Power isn’t just important. It’s essential.

That’s why more and more filmmakers are ditching off-the-shelf battery solutions and switching to custom power setups that are designed specifically for their cameras, lights, monitors, and workflows. If you’ve ever found yourself whispering, “Please hold on just 30 more seconds” to your V-mount battery, this post is for you.

At Indipro Tools, we build custom camera power solutions that work for you, not against you — so your gear stays fueled, and your creativity flows without interruption.

The Problem with Generic Camera Battery Systems

Generic power gear is like a one-size-fits-all T-shirt. Sure, it technically fits — but it’s either too tight, too loose, or awkwardly bunches up in the middle.

Here's what we hear from real filmmakers every week about standard camera power solutions:

“The cable’s too long and gets caught when I move the rig.”
“The battery I bought doesn't power my LED light and camera monitor at the same time.”
“The D-Tap adapter gets hot… is that normal?”(Spoiler: it's not ideal for professional video equipment.)

Universal power kits often mean making compromises. But when you're on a time-sensitive shoot or juggling multiple camera setups, compromise costs more than dollars — it costs footage.

Why Custom Power = Real-World Reliability

When your rig is built right, it just works. That’s the Indipro way. Here’s how a custom solution gives you the upper hand:

1. Precision Power Distribution, No Guesswork

Whether you're shooting on a RED Komodo, Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K, or a Sony FX3 with a Frankenstein rig of video accessories, each camera system demands specific voltage and current. With a custom build, you're not "making it work" — you're powering it the right way from the start.

2. Clean Builds That Move With You

Custom-length power cables. Smart connector placement. Zero clutter. Whether you’re shoulder-mounting, gimbal-swinging, or running handheld camera work, we’ll make sure your power solution doesn’t trip you up — literally.

3. You Say the Word, We Solder

You need a D-Tap to USB-C cable at 16 inches? We got you. You want a V-mount plate with a 15mm rail adapter and locking barrel output? Say no more. We’ve got Zee at the soldering station, and trust us — she doesn’t play.

“Camera Power Horror Stories” You Never Want to Experience

You know the look — the panic in someone’s eyes when the camera battery dies mid-scene, the client’s eyes widen, and suddenly everyone’s pretending not to point fingers.

We've been there. And so have thousands of filmmakers dealing with unreliable camera power systems. Just take a look:

“Watched a whole half-day of shooting with an A-list actor go down the drain when the memory card corrupted all the footage.” – Reddit user
“My battery died mid-take. I got the file on my PC, but it wouldn’t play. I almost cried.” – Reddit user
“I was in charge of charging the camera batteries…forgot them at home. Drove 100mph to save the shoot.” – Reddit user
“A 12-hour commercial turned into 28 because the client couldn’t make up their mind. Everything went off script. If we didn’t have backups for backups… disaster.” – Director on a film forum

These aren't rare events — they’re everyday disasters on sets big and small. And they all share one thing in common: when the power fails, the shoot fails.

You don’t always get a second take. Having a backup isn’t just smart — it’s survival.

Real Customers, Real Shoots, Real Wins

Let’s paint a picture.

A documentary team came to us last month — they were prepping to shoot in the Arizona desert. Dust, heat, no AC outlets for miles. They needed a multi-device rig powered off one central V-mount — camera, wireless audio, LED panel. We built a custom splitter cable with heat-resistant shielding, matched power draw, and delivered it in three days. Their shoot? Flawless.

One filmmaker later told us, “I didn’t even have to think about power once. That alone was worth every penny.”
