    Does anyone know what Scarlet's technical power consumption specifications are? If not, what are the power specs on EPIC (from what I understand, they're both similar)?

    From the SCARLET-X Operation Guide (v2.0.5) found here...

    https://www.red.com/support/all/downloads

    POWER CONSUMPTION

    The camera draws approximately 60 watts when recording in 4K resolution, 24fps MOVIE mode. The camera is cooled by convection from the camera body assisted by a fan contained in a sealed air duct.


    Under typical operating conditions, a REDVOLT® XL 90Wh battery will run the camera and accessories for about 90 minutes. A REDVOLT® 30Wh battery will run the camera and accessories for about 30 minutes.

    Thank you very much for that. :)

    Would you (or anyone else) happen to know how many amp battery it requires? (I'm not sure if I'm asking that correctly...) Basically, I'm trying to find out if I can use Bebob Akkus batteries with a Scarlet. Has anyone tried them with an EPIC, perhaps?

    I don't see why you couldn't. You just need a v-lock battery plate and somewhere to mount it.

    That paragraph from the scarlet guide is talking about redvolts as well. So I'd you already have a red brick or any other v-lock battery you could use those. After using my scarlet I know for sure that I'm going to need several more redvolts. I, too, am going to invest in a redbrick or two and battery plate set up.

    Find me one other thread in this forum that discusses Bebob Akkus V75 Plus batteries and their compatibility with Scarlet in regards to their 4.8 A max load and ability to supply sustained voltage needed to power a RED camera.

    I'm waiting...

    There's most likely not one, you're fine.

    Let's just drop this before it turns into an argument of some kind.

    Hopefully someone here is able to answer your question!

    Two things: 1. Do I need to remind you that the power requirements on Scarlet are slightly different than that of EPIC. And 2. You say Scarlet = EPIC as though a thread about this exists in the EPIC section of the forum. Where is it...?

    Sorry if I sounded harsh, but I did do a search and found nothing. I don't like it when people make comments like that, especially when they are the ones who are incorrect.


    Anyway, Bebob says that their Rouge series batteries are high-load batteries. So, I would assume that their Akkus series would be low-load. If so, can they still supply enough power to be able to run a Scarlet? That is my question.

    I understand that batteries need to supply enough voltage and amps (I'm not an electrician, so I don't know anything about this) in order to be able to run a device. I like Bebob's Akkus system and I'd like to know if it can be used with a Scarlet, however, their site says that they are "For audio and small camcorders" while their Rouge series offer "Capacity display in percentage on ARRI ALEXA, RED ONE, Panasonic and Sony cameras."

    So based on that, I would assume that Bebob Akkus batteries cannot be used with a Scarlet. Or with an EPIC either. Has anyone tested them before?
