NEO-9 Mini
The new NEO-9 98Wh battery is compact, robust and lightweight. It sustains up to 16A peak loads and 12A continuous and has all the features of the Hypercore line.
The battery includes RFID so you can read the state of your battery remotely. It also supports SMBUS to provide battery status to your camera.
At a MSRP of $249, it is not worth going through the hassle of re-celling your old batteries!
Helix
The new Helix line of batteries provides dual voltage output: Both 14 & 28 volt!
On a standard battery plate, it can be used as any other 14v battery, but with a Core high voltage mount plate, the battery supplies 28v to the camera, yet can still provide 14v to accessories!
High Voltage plates are available for the ARRI Alexa, ARRI Alexa Mini, ARRI LF, Sony Venice and the ARRI Skypanel. Plates can be V-Mount or Gold Mount.
There are 98Wh, 150Wh, 190Wh and 293Wh models.
