1. Introduction
1.7 The batteries feature built-in D-Tap outputs (12V) and a replaceable
USB output unit (5V 2A) that can be swapped for Lemo, Hirose or DTap output units, already available for the Gold Mount PowerHub.
1.8 These smaller, lighter batteries allow you to control the capacity and
weight of your power source to suit the application: 1 battery is ideal
for handheld applications, 2 or more linked batteries provide longer
run-time or an increased current draw of up to 12A, ideal for
powering multiple accessories. Current is delivered using superior,
high-current pin contacts.
1.9 PAGlink allows seamless hot-swapping for continuous power, or the
ability to add another battery just to keep shooting, which means no
more time-wasting camera reboots.
1.10 Simultaneous discharge from linked batteries means no dead weight
on your camera. Sharing the current load extends overall battery life
to provide a better return on investment. Both the MPL50 and MPL99
batteries are guaranteed for 2 years.
1.11 The PAGlink technology will automatically select the most suitable
batteries for discharge, according to their charge status. Batteries do
not discharge into each other. The system ensures that the maximum
linked output is kept to a safe level.
1.12 The intelligent PAGlink batteries manage their own charging safely
and efficiently, and can be charged, whilst linked, using other
5

reputable manufacturer’s Li-Ion chargers. They are compatible with
PAGlink and Anton/Bauer chargers for maximum versatility and
economic integration.
1.13 Batteries in any state of charge can be linked for charging, in
multiples of 8 or fewer. During charging, the least-charged batteries
are given priority. When the batteries reach a similar state of charge,
they will charge simultaneously. The charge status of each battery is
shown on its individual display.
1.14 The batteries feature an ergonomic design and a ‘soft-touch’ coated
protective band for safer handling and increased durability.
1.15 1/4” bush inserts have been incorporated to enable the mounting
of accessories to individual or linked batteries.
1.16 The battery display provides remaining run-time, on-load, in 1 minute
increments, for the total of all linked batteries. It shows remaining
capacity for each individual battery in 1% increments, at any time.
It also provides useful data, such as the number of charge/discharge
cycles, to assist with battery management.
1.17 When linked, Mini PAGlink batteries form a network that allows them
to communicate with each other and report to the camera as one
battery.
1.18 They will automatically detect and adapt to the camera data
system that allows Anton Bauer Gold Mount batteries to provide
capacity information in the camera viewfinder/LCD.
1.19 The batteries feature a fully-serviceable, modular construction that
allows authorised replacement of the cell-pack whilst maintaining
conformity with UN standards and IATA air transport regulations.
1.20 The battery firmware can be updated easily by the customer, via
external contacts, using an update tool provided by PAG.
1.21 PAG’s patented intelligent battery linking technology remains far in
advance of any other camera battery system available today.

3. Charging
3.1 IMPORTANT: READ THE CHARGER HANDBOOK BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO
CHARGE THE BATTERY.
3.2 NOTE: The battery is put into ‘ship mode’ prior to transit.
It can be activated by connecting it to a charger that is poweredup, or by linking it to a battery that is already active.
3.3 Mini PAGlink batteries can be charged individually or linked, regardless
of their capacity or state of charge. They can also be charged when
linked to PAGlink Gold Mount batteries Models PL94 (9306) and
PL150 (9313).
3.4 The least-charged batteries are given priority until all the batteries are
in a similar state-of-charge. They will then be fully-charged simultaneously. Up to 8 batteries can be linked for charging on each
position. The following PAGlink chargers can be used:

4. Discharging
4.1 Mini PAGlink batteries can be discharged individually or linked. They
can also be discharged linked to PAGlink Gold Mount batteries Models
9306 PL94T and 9313 PL150T. The batteries can be in any state of
charge. The maximum number of PAGlink batteries that may be linked
has been limited to 8. If more than 8 batteries are linked, the
management system will shut-down the supply, and no current will
flow.
4.2 Linking batteries for discharge provides a number of benefits:
The combined capacity extends the run-time of your camera set-up.
Two linked 50Wh batteries will provide 100Wh; a 50Wh and a 94Wh
battery linked will provide 144Wh; a 50Wh and a 150Wh battery will
provide 200Wh.
Where total continuous consumption is above 8A, two or more
batteries, of any rated capacity, should be linked. This will increase
the maximum continuous discharge current to 12A, provided the
batteries are in a similar state of charge. Sharing the current load
across multiple batteries prolongs individual battery life and provides
a better return on investment.
4.3 Linked batteries form a network which allows communication between
batteries, ensuring that a safe protocol is followed under all circumstances.
4.4 The PAGlink management system elects the battery with one or more
connected to its front contacts to be the ‘master’ and ensures that
this battery is always active (but not necessarily delivering current).
The system makes the most efficient use of the power available, and
prevents a transfer of charge between batteries. As discharge
progresses, batteries are electronically added to or subtracted from
the bus bar to deliver the current required. The linked batteries
discharge simultaneously rather than sequentially. Their individual
state of charge and the total run-time can be viewed via their
displays. As long as the ‘master’ remains connected, batteries may be
added or hot-swapped in order to achieve continuous running.
4.5 The batteries incorporate a precision, fixed, end-of-discharge cutoff,
set to 12.5V, as measured by the battery. This cutoff will only
operate if the battery capacity is less than 5%, eliminating unwanted
operation due to high current and low battery temperature.
4.6 The batteries incorporate a current limit of 8A for an individual
battery and 12A for linked batteries. Consumption above this for
more than 5 seconds will trigger the over-current protection, turning
the battery output off. It can be recovered by simply removing it
from the load and pressing the display button, provided the battery
still retains some charge.
4.7 The batteries may be discharged within the temperature range -20°C
to +50°C, but for optimum performance, +10°C to +40°C is
recommended. The operating time will be shorter in conditions of
low temperature, and discharging will be electronically inhibited if
the battery temperature is below -20°C.
9
4. Discharging
4.8 When the battery has been discharged at a high rate it will become
warm, and it is advisable to let it cool before charging.
4.9 When not in use, batteries should be kept in an unlinked state to
ensure a lower self-discharge rate.
10
5.1 For the short term, batteries can be left stacked on a charger until
required; the charger will keep them topped-up ready for use.
5.2 For long-term storage, batteries should be in a half-charged state
(between 20% and 80%), and not linked.
5.3 After a long period of inactivity, a Mini PAGlink battery will auto-
matically enter Ship Mode, which greatly reduces its rate of selfdischarge. It can be reactivated by connecting it to a charger that is
powered-up, or by linking it to a battery that is already active.
5.4 Batteries should be stored in a cool, dry place at a temperature
between 0°C and +20°C. Long-term storage outside of this temperature range may reduce the battery’s life. Maintenance charging is not
required during long term storage.
5.5 After storage it is advisable to fully-charge batteries before use.

6. Battery Linking Features
6.2 Mini PAGlink batteries can be discharged and charged individually or
linked, combining their capacities. Two 50Wh batteries will provide
100Wh when linked, 3 will provide 150Wh, etc.
Mini PAGlink batteries can also be linked to PAGlink PL94 and PL150
batteries. A 50Wh MPL50G and a 94WhPL94 battery linked will
provide 144Wh; an MPL50G and a PL150 will provide 200Wh.
Batteries of any rated capacity, in any state of charge, can be linked
for charge or discharge.
Linking batteries increases the maximum continuous current draw
capability to 12A, provided the batteries linked are in a similar state
of charge. See Specification for the batteries’ individual current draw
capability.
The maximum number of PAGlink batteries that may be linked has
been limited to 8. If more than 8 batteries are linked, the management system will shut-down the supply, and no current will flow.
Linked batteries form a network which allows communication between
batteries, ensuring that a safe protocol is followed under all
circumstances. The PAGlink management system elects the battery
with one or more connected to its front contacts to be the ‘master’
and ensures that this battery is always active (but not necessarily
delivering current). The system makes the most efficient use of the
energy available, and prevents a transfer of charge between batteries.
As discharge progresses, batteries are electronically added to or

7. Run-Time, Capacity & Data
7.1 The Battery Display:
The battery is able to display a numeric run-time prediction against
load, and charge status as a percentage.
When connected to a camera that is turned-on,
two presses of the battery’s display button will
show a predicted run-time against the given
load, expressed in hours and minutes. When
batteries are linked the run-time displayed
relates to the total for the connected
batteries.
A single button press of the display, off or
on-load, shows a percentage figure of
available capacity. When the batteries are
linked this figure still relates to the battery’s
individual capacity.
When individual battery capacity drops below
5% the display will indicate that the battery
should be charged, as shown.
When the battery is fully charged the display
will indicate 100%.

Charging will be inhibited if the battery voltage exceeds a pre-set
level.
9.2 Over-discharge Protection
When the battery voltage reaches 12.5V, discharging is inhibited.
9.3 Over-current Protection
If a single 50Wh battery is subjected to a current greater than 8A
(10A for a 99Wh battery), but less than 15A, the output will be
turned off after 5 seconds. If the current is greater than 15A, the
output will be turned off immediately. In either case, the battery
display will be inoperative and there will be no voltage available at
the terminals. The battery can be reset by removing it from the load
and pressing the display button.
9.4 Thermal Protection
Software protection inhibits charging if the battery temperature is
below 0°C. Return the battery to the charger when the battery
