Deity has released the SPD-1 Power Distribution Box for managing power in a sound bag or on a sound cart. This versatile device was designed to make sound recordists’ lives on set easier.
The SPD-1 supports both smart and non-smart batteries with triple DC inputs and hot-swappability. The SPD-1 also displays battery telemetry data so you can easily keep track of your power usage. This helps you prevent the embarrassing situation of running out of power at the wrong time.
1.1” Color Screen
The SPD-1’s 1.1” color screen provides all the necessary information, like total power consumption, battery temperatures, voltage, life, and cycle count. There are locking toggle switches that make it easy to turn your devices on and off, and to help prevent losing power randomly.
The SPD-1 features dual 1/4” threaded mounts, allowing you to securely mount the device in any position. The reversible mounting clip makes it easy to change the device’s orientation as needed. The operating range of 12V-18V means that it will work with a wide range of devices.
Front-facing 5V2A Type A USB port
In addition, the SPD-1 features a front-facing 5V2A Type A USB port, which makes it simple to charge your devices and keep them powered up. There are also six unregulated 4-Pin Push Power outputs (that are Hirose compatible), that you can use to power multiple devices simultaneously. The six outputs are divided across two power circuit groups so you can toggle on and off auxiliary devices without needing to power down your primary devices.
USB-C Input
The USB-C Input provides regulated 12V into your system from wall power. This is useful when you are stationed in one place for longer and don’t want to use batteries. Ensure your USB-C power supply supports the 12V USB-C power standard and supplies enough watts. It is suggested to use a USB-C laptop-style power supply with the SPD-1.
