Thank you for your choice in purchasing a Switronix Product. The JETPACK is a power distribution accessory with an
all aluminum, compact design, housing a power regulation board. The unit has three LEMO outputs (voltage varies by
model), a USB power connection, and 2 unregulated powertaps on either V or 3-Stud mount plates. The JetPack offers
all the power outputs you will ever need in a super compact design that can be mounted with any ¼-20 connection.
Power Output Specs:
JP-V-EPIC/JP-A-EPIC
V-Mount/3-Stud Battery Input: DC 11-17v
LEMO(1B) Output for Epic/Scarlet: DC 11-17v, Unregulated

**The JetPack will charge an iPad but slower then the Apple brand charger.
You will see "Not Charging" on the iPad screen, but that just means 2.1A of current is not being supplied to the device.
Jetpack Operation: Once a battery is connected to the Jetpack,
power is available to the battery plate output cable (1B LEMO, BMCC Pin, XLR)
and two battery plate power taps. The smaller LEMO outputs on the side and
USB are only active when the switch is turned on. This is wired as such because
the regulation circuitry does draw power only when the switch
is in the on position regardless if their are devices connected. Once the switch is in the on position, an
LED will illuminate through the top vents of the Jetpack. For HDV/DSLR users, appropriate 7.2v battery
paddle cables are offered so the Jetpack can supply regulated power to your camera models.
You can connect devices to the side Lemo connections with any one of the cables offered by Switronix. In
addition, a pin-out diagram is offered should you want to make your own cables. Each voltage output
has a different pin configuration to prevent the wrong cables being plugged into the improper voltages
for your additional devices.
This product is proudly made in the USA.
