Whenever I need to buy new kit this is the place to go. Wendy and her team have excellent knowledge of the equipment they supply, access to information from manufacturers about the kit and an attitude to genuine customer service that is not often found in today's globalised corporate world. I have dealt with all the main UK broadcast suppliers and buying from Wendy's is by far the best experience.
The Tiny-C is an ultra compact pocket-sized charger that turns a compatible USB-C PPS power supply into a smart charger for AudioRoot eSMART Li-xxWh and NEO batteries. the charger is a geat addition to location sound kits, travel light charging, battery health management, and Smart battery users.
The AudioRoot eSMART TINY-C is built for crews who want a capable smart-battery charger without another bulky power brick. Connected to a compatible USB-C PPS supply, it can charge supported AudioRoot smart batteries at up to 4.0 A while monitoring the battery and negotiating the power it needs in real time.
Its blue OLED display shows charging current, battery voltage, capacity, cycle count and estimated time remaining. A front-panel button selects a 100%, 80%, 60% or 30% charge limit, making it easier to prioritise maximum runtime, everyday battery longevity, storage preparation or air-travel preparation.
