Following the success of its MLmicro hot-swap battery, bebob has announced that it is now “enhancing the product family” with a new version of its unique adapter solution: the MLmicro, originally launched as a robust metal adapter for V-Mount cameras, is now available in a “lightweight and cost-efficient” edition.
bebob is also introducing the Coco-A2BP-U and Coco-V2BP-U adapters, which enable BP cameras (e.g. Sony FX6 or Blackmagic models) to be powered via Amicro or Vmicro batteries – offering production teams “flexible and reliable power solutions” for mixed camera setups.

“The MLmicro is a highly versatile 43 Wh / 14.4 V battery featuring hot-swap and buffer functionality and a variety of outputs,” bebob said.
“It not only powers V-Mount cameras but also supports a wide range of accessories, enabling uninterrupted battery replacement for cameras, monitors, and other equipment during operation.”
While the original MLmicro adapter was designed as a metal-based solution, the new version is made of durable plastic – maintaining the “trusted reliability” of its predecessor.
“Users now benefit from the same smart functionality in a lighter and more affordable form factor,” bebob added.
Coco-A2BP-U and Coco-V2BP-U
The new Coco-A2BP-U and Coco-V2BP-U adapters enable BP cameras (such as the Blackmagic Pyxis and a wide range of Sony camcorders) and additional gear to be powered via Amicro or Vmicro batteries.
These adapters are reportedly ideal for productions that work with mixed camera systems, rental houses looking to standardise power solutions, and crews who need extended battery life for uninterrupted operation during long shoots.
Featuring an adjustable height design that accommodates a variety of devices, these adapters “solve compatibility issues with ease”.
Key features include:
- 2x Twist D-Tap; unregulated battery voltage (10V – 16,8V)
- 2x USB-A outputs with a combined power of 15W
- 1x USB-C socket with quick charge 4+ (60W) output
- 1x USB-C socket with PD3.0 (36W) charge input
- Power not just for the camera but other equipment simultaneously
“Compact, robust and easy to integrate, the Coco-V2BP-U and Coco-A2BP-U ensure BP cameras can seamlessly join Amicro and Vmicro workflows while providing reliable, professional-grade power wherever it’s needed,” bebob concluded.
The recommended retail prices for the new products are as follows:
- MLmicro (plastic version): 698 €
- Coco-A2BP-U: 328 €
- Coco-V2BP-U: 328 €
