Block Battery Protean 4 Charger | 4-Channel Sequential Fast Charger

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Block Battery Protean 4 Charger is a compact 4-channel sequential fast charger designed to keep Protean camera batteries cycling continuously on busy film, TV, and commercial sets. Built for professional use, it delivers fast charge times, rugged construction, and simple operation in a space-saving footprint ideal for location work and studio carts.

Fast, Intelligent Charging Performance

The Protean 4 Charger can charge a Protean battery from empty to full in approximately 3 hours, then automatically sequences to the next battery on the dock so your power supply stays refreshed as production demands change. Sequential fast charging helps extend battery life compared to uncontrolled rapid charging, while still delivering quick turnaround for high-demand cinema and broadcast workflows.

Compatible with All Protean Battery Modes

For maximum flexibility, the Protean 4 Charger is engineered to charge any Protean battery regardless of its configuration or operating mode, whether 14V, 28V, or Travel mode. This universal compatibility simplifies your charging setup, allowing mixed-voltage Protean batteries to share the same charger without manual reconfiguration or mode-specific hardware.

Space-Saving 4-Channel Design

With four charging channels in a compact footprint, the Protean 4 helps minimize the space required on charging stations, DIT carts, and prep benches. Its sequential architecture keeps batteries rotating through charge cycles efficiently, making it well suited for crews that need a continuous stream of ready-to-go Protean packs without dedicating extra room to multiple chargers.

Rugged, Professional Construction

Built to withstand real-world production environments, the Protean 4 Charger features a strong, durable aluminum housing that resists daily wear, transport, and on-set handling. A convenient integrated carrying handle makes it easy to move between prep areas, trucks, and locations, supporting fast turnarounds and frequent company moves.
