Belkin Launches Hybrid Camera Grip and Power Bank
Belkin has released the Stage PowerGrip, a new accessory combining a camera grip with a power bank. This device features a substantial 9,300 mAh battery capable of fully charging iPhones. It conveniently attaches to MagSafe-compatible iPhones using built-in magnets. While it offers 7.5W wireless charging, wired charging via the included USB-C cable is faster. The PowerGrip can charge up to three devices simultaneously, utilizing its wireless capabilities, the included cable, and an additional USB-C port. However, its total output is capped at 15W, making it ideal for charging an iPhone alongside smaller gadgets. The PowerGrip connects to an iPhone via Bluetooth, and its button functions as a remote camera shutter. It supports various orientations for filming and can also act as a stand for the iPhone. Additionally, a connector allows for attachment to a tripod mount. A digital display shows the remaining battery capacity. The Belkin Stage PowerGrip is available for purchase on Belkin's website and Amazon for $80.
