IDX takes its CUE for new camera battery range

Endura CUE is the new battery range from IDX that provides reliability at a lower cost. This Lithium Ion battery range has been designed to meet the most stringent PSE regulations for electrical and mechanical safety – essential for work and travel abroad.

To ensure varying requirements are met, there are three models in the new range – Endura CUE-D75, Endura CUE-D95 and Endura CUE-D150. All batteries have 1x (D-Tap) DC output connector allowing peripherals to be powered direct. The V-Mount connection is a worldwide standard fitting and the preferred mounting system for the broadcast industry.

A discharge cut-off prevents the batteries being damaged by products without a voltage sensing shut-down mechanism. Four bright power status LEDs provide a quick check of remaining power capacity. The range complies with all published international standards and comes with a I year capacity better than 70% and a 2 year defects warranty.

To achieve the CUE range’s cost-saving benefits, IDX has worked closely with its partner, Sanyo – the world’s premier supplier of Lithium-Ion cells. Improvements in design and the manufacturing process have been combined with developments in microchip technology.
