Product Appearance
For Your Safety
Improper using of the Li-ion battery pack may cause heat, smoke, fire, or explosion. Please be sure to keep in mind the following precautions.
DANGER
Charge with SWIT chargers only.
Do not use battery in fire or hot places to prevent overheating, cracking and
other hazards.

WARNING
Fully charged battery will discharge naturally and please use it as
soon as it gets charged.
The battery may become warm in use or while being charged. This
is normal.
Store the battery in cool and dry conditions.
For long time storage, please keep the battery power above 50%.
During long periods of inactivity, please remove the battery from
the equipment.
Do not use, store or place the battery in an electrostatic area.
Make sure the input voltage, power consumption of the equipment
to be powered meet the battery specifications.

Bi-voltage Switching
The battery can output 14.4V(11-16.8V) or 28.8V(22-33.6V) by internal
circuit switching.
When the voltage indicator LED is OFF, the battery is in 11-16.8V system;
When the voltage indicator LED is ON, the battery is in 22-33.6V system.
1. Working 14.4V (11-16.8V) Mode
In default condition, the Voltage indicator is “OFF”, means the battery
is 14.4V (11-16.8V) system, and can power normal 14.4V equipment
and charge by normal 14.4V charger system.
2. Working 28.8V (22-33.6V) Mode
To active the 28.8V (22-33.6V) power output, there’re following 2 ways:
(1) By SWIT particular KA-A20S V-mount plate for ALEXA and AMIRA
cameras.
KA-A20S Plate
The KA-A20S V-mount plate is particularly designed for ARRI Cameras;
Compactible with ALEXA LF, ALEXA 65, ALEXA SXT and AMIRA
When PB-H290S battery is mounted to KA-A20S plate, the battery will
output 22-33.6V voltage automatically, to power ALEXA LF/65/SXT and
AMIRA cameras.
When PB-H290S battery outputs 22-33.6V, both the battery D-tap socket
and the plate D-tap/LEMO sockets will output regular16V voltage for
other camera-top equipment.

Magic Sticker 3rd party plate
Caution
Never attach the Magic Sticker to the battery directly!
Make sure the Magic Sticker is firmly attached to the V-mount plate, will
not fall off from the V-mount plate and will not adhere to the battery.
Only attach the magic sticker to the battery mount plate of the equipment
which can accept 22-33.6V high voltage input!
Do not attach the Magic Sticker to the V-mount plate of chargers.
With the magic sticker attached, the battery plate will output 22-33.6V high
voltage from D-TAP socket (if it has). Always check the equipment to be
powered from D-tap socket and make sure it can accept 22-33.6V voltage!
If changing battery mount plate from the equipment, please remove the
Magic Sticker to avoid misuse.

LED Power Indicators
The battery provides 8 LEDs to indicate remaining power percentage
and remaining working time.
When battery is discharging, press “Power Check” button, the light
number of upper 4 LEDs indicate remaining working hours, and the
light number of lower 4 LEDs indicate remaining working quarters,
calculated by the current load.
The LED will flash when remaining time is less than 15 minutes to
remind changing battery.
When battery is charging, the upper 4 LEDs flash constantly,
indicates the capacity percentage 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%.
When battery is free, press “Power Check” button, the upper 4 LEDs
will light up, to indicate the remaining capacity percentage 25%,
50%, 75% and 100%.

◆
D-tap socket
The battery provides a D-tap power socket on the top side.
When the battery is working 11-16.8V system, the D-tap will output
11-16.8V voltage together with the battery, and Max load 120W/10A.
When the battery is working 22-33.6V system, the D-tap will output
regulated 16V voltage, and Max load 50W/3A.
The D-tap socket does not support charging input.
Please make sure to check the ＋ — polarity of D-tap connector before
plug-in.
Please do not force the D-tap connector to the battery D-tap socket if
feeling difficult, and check the D-tap connector shape and polarity again.

Charging
Charge with SWIT chargers only.
Max charging current is 6A.
The D-tap socket does not support charging input.
The battery should be charged under temperature range of 0~40°C
however 10~30°C is recommended for optimizing the charging
performance.
Fully charged battery will discharge naturally and please use it as
soon as it gets charged.

Discharging
The battery has 11-16.8V or 22-33.6V bi-voltage output, please refer
to the “Bi-voltage switching” chapter.
The battery pack should discharge under temperature range of -20℃
~40℃, however 0~40°C is recommended for a batter performance.
Make sure the total power consumption should not exceed 200W,
otherwise the internal protection circuit will active and cut off power
to protect the battery cells.
At low temperature, the battery internal resistance will increase, and
will short the discharging time.
◆
◆
◆
◆
Multiple Circuit Protections
The battery has an MCU to measure and record the real time data,
and will cut off power when over-voltage, under-voltage, over-load,
high-temperature of low-temperature is detected.
For over-load protection, please remove the battery from equipment
and it will automatically recover after 1 minute standing.
For overheat protection, place it in a cool place and the battery will
automatically recover after cooling.
For under-voltage protection after a long time not using, please
charge the battery in time, and the battery will recover by itself.
For over-voltage protection, please discharge the battery to reduce
the voltage, and the battery will recover by itself.

Life Cycle
The battery life may vary depending on frequency of use, storage and
operation temperature environment.
The battery life will be reduced if frequently used with full load applications.
The battery life is also reduced if stored in fully charged and/or empty
conditions for extended periods.

(2) By SWIT “Magic Sticker” on 3rd party V-mount plates, for Cine Lights etc.
Attach the Magic Sticker on the particular position of any standard 3rd
party V-mount plates, and mount PB-H290S on, the PB-H290S will
detect the Magic Sticker and automatically output 22-33.6V voltage.
When PB-H290S battery outputs 22-33.6V, the battery D-tap socket will
output regulated 16V voltage, while the 3rd party V-mount plates
D-tap socket (if they have) will output 22-33.6V voltage.
