Whether you’re on a fast-paced commercial video shoot, traveling through a new city, or editing footage on your laptop at a local café, one challenge remains constant: keeping all your essential gear powered without the chaos of loose, tangled cables.
Standard power banks are great for daily travel, but they lack mounting options when you need to attach one to a camera tripod, light stand, or action cam handle. On the other hand, heavy professional camera batteries offer secure mounts, but they are far too bulky for everyday carry or a quick weekend getaway.
That’s why we engineered the SmallRig Nano Power Bank Series (Nano36 & Nano72) — a versatile, crossover power solution built for both high-demand creative setups and everyday life on the go.
Featuring a modular V-mount design, built-in 1/4"-20 threads, and a 70 cm retractable USB-C cable, the Nano series adapts seamlessly: lock it onto your camera cage for an all-day shoot, or detach the V-plate and slip it into your bag as your everyday travel companion.
Key Innovations: Modular Power, Engineered for Rigs
1 Dual-Identity Mounting System
The back of every Nano unit features a standard 1/4"-20 threaded hole and a locating hole, paired with a detachable metal V-mount plate secured by a 1/4"-20 slotted screw. This means the Nano adapts instantly to how you work:
- On set: Mount it directly to camera cages, tripods, magic arms, or crab clamps using standard 1/4"-20 screws, or attach the V-mount plate for full V-lock compatibility.
- Off set: Detach the V-plate and it transforms into a sleek, everyday power bank for travel and personal devices.
2 Built-In 67 cm Retractable USB-C Cable
Cable management on set shouldn't eat into your shoot time. The Nano series integrates a 67 cm (26.4 in) retractable USB-C cable that pulls out for use and retracts automatically:
- Pull-to-use, release-to-retract: Extend only the length you need to power your camera, monitor, or light.
- Zero clutter: Eliminates loose cords, prevents snagging, and means one less cable to forget in your gear bag.
3 TFT Color Smart Display
Uncertainty has no place on a commercial shoot. The built-in TFT color display provides real-time system diagnostics at a glance — and with a single press of the button, you can dive deeper:
- Live power metrics: Battery level, plus input and output wattage for each port.
- Cell health monitoring: Battery health percentage, total cycle count, remaining cycle life, and operating temperature.
