Description:

This adapter solves the most common problem when working with classic Beaulieu 16mm cameras: the power supply. Instead of relying on rare or defective original batteries, this adapter lets you use modern AAA batteries. The design is precisely tailored to the handgrip of your camera.

As engineers, we have significantly improved the design: The end cap now features a solid metal thread. This puts an end to worn or torn plastic threads. This makes the adapter extremely durable and ensures a rock-solid fit, even when things get hectic on set. For operation, we recommend using 5x high-quality NiMh batteries (e.g., Eneloop Pro or EBL 1100mAh). This setup provides enough power for about 17-18 rolls of 100ft film and ensures a reliable voltage level.
