]]> Core SWX PowerVault First Look: A Modular, All-in-One Battery Charging Solution https://news.broadfield.com/core-swx-powervault-first-look-a-modular-all-in-one-battery-charging-solution/ Tue, 21 Apr 2026 15:00:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=35493 In this article by Erik Naso for NewsShooter, Core SWX introduces the PowerVault, a new modular charging system designed to simplify and unify battery management for production professionals. Debuted at NAB 2026, PowerVault stands out as a flexible, all-in-one solution that replaces traditional single-purpose chargers with a customizable system capable of supporting a wide range of battery types. With five configurable bays and interchangeable Snap adapters, users can easily adapt the system to their specific workflow, whether on set or at home.

PowerVault’s biggest advantage is its versatility. It supports numerous battery formats—including V-Mount, G-Mount, Sony BP-U, Canon LP-E6, and even AA and 9V batteries—allowing users to charge multiple battery types simultaneously without juggling separate chargers. The system also enables stacking Snap packs for parallel charging, with the ability to handle up to 25 packs at once. This streamlined approach reduces clutter and improves efficiency, making it ideal for fast-paced production environments.

Another standout feature is Power Sharing Mode, which allows batteries to redistribute power between bays without needing an external AC source. This creates a self-contained, off-grid power solution that can keep essential gear running in remote locations. Additionally, built-in USB-C and PD Pro outputs (140W and 65W) transform PowerVault into a central power hub capable of running cameras, monitors, laptops, and more directly from the unit.

PowerVault also incorporates modern design elements and smart technology. Its GaN-based power architecture ensures efficient performance, while its IP65-rated enclosure provides durability for field use. Users can monitor and control the entire system through a dedicated Bluetooth app, offering real-time insights into battery levels, health, and charging status. Powered by Core SWX’s Voltbridge platform, the system enables reliable communication across all connected batteries.

Overall, the Core SWX PowerVault represents a significant evolution in production power management. By combining modular design, multi-format compatibility, and advanced power-sharing capabilities, it offers a highly adaptable solution that meets the demands of today’s complex production workflows.
