Dual D-Tap and 100W
The K&F Concept V-mount battery has a standard, usable capacity of 99Wh. Unlike my previous V-mount batteries, however, it has two key advantages:
Firstly, it supports 100W (others usually only up to 65W), which allows some devices (and the battery itself) to charge faster.
Secondly, it has not one, but two D-Tap connectors, which is practical if you want to operate multiple devices with D-Tap cables. This eliminates the need for a splitter for combinations like a camera (via a dummy battery) and a field recorder.
I consider the built-in LED more of a gimmick; I haven't found it particularly useful, and it reminds me of the time when every power bank manufacturer insisted on including a flashlight function in their products at all costs. That trend didn't last.
Otherwise, the casing feels a bit cheaper than other batteries, but it's still robust. There's also no display showing charging/discharging information, just a simple battery level indicator using an LED bar. But I'm fine with that. Actual performance and practicality are more important to me than extras like a fancy display, and in that respect, the V-MOUNT battery delivers in my opinion.
