14 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- PAGlok connectors are more robust than V-mount but less solid than AB Gold mount connectors.
- PAG L95E batteries are affordable and adequate for powering cameras with interchangeable power modules.
- PAGlok connectors can be prone to mechanical failures and users unfamiliar with the system may have difficulty installing or removing them.
- Using batteries with connectors that are standard in your local market provides better availability and support if problems arise.
Depends on
- Anecdotal experience from individual users with specific battery models.
- The discussion does not specify which camera systems or power requirements were tested.
- Reliability issues mentioned were personal experiences and may not be representative.
- Comparison is based on older technology from 2012 and may not reflect current products.
