CoreSWX Coiled Powertap Cable To LP-E6 Dummy Battery

CoreSWX Coiled Powertap Cable To LP-E6 Dummy Battery | Power via a dummy battery

Power a camera that takes an LP-E6-style battery from a Powertap connection, without relying on a battery in the camera. The CoreSWX Coiled Powertap Cable To LP-E6 Dummy Battery links those two ends: a Powertap cable connection and an LP-E6 dummy battery. It’s for a setup where power needs to come through a cable rather than from a battery fitted in the camera. That can be useful when your power source is positioned away from the camera, while the dummy battery sits in the battery compartment. The coiled design is part of the cable’s name and form; the key point is the connection it provides between Powertap and the LP-E6 dummy battery. If that’s the cable path your setup calls for, this is a specific adapter cable, rather than a general-purpose power lead. Its job is straightforward: connect those two ends.

Choosing the right cable path

Think of this cable as the link between a Powertap power connection and an LP-E6 dummy battery. The dummy battery end is intended to take the place of a battery in the camera, while the cable brings power in from the other end. That makes the connection type central to choosing it: the product name identifies both the Powertap end and the LP-E6 dummy battery end. It isn’t a cable with a battery attached, and the product name gives no further detail about the power source or the cameras it suits. For a rig built around these two connections, it gives you a defined route from the Powertap side to the camera’s battery compartment. That’s the practical reason to choose this particular cable.
