Safe & reliable way to power multiple cameras simultaneously.
The ESPER PowerBox provides protected, regulated and reliable power for up to 6 cameras from a single outlet and for less than the cost of the manufacturer’s AC power adapters. Perfect for photogrammetry set-ups, bullet-time photography and all other multi-camera applications. Works worldwide.
If there’s an issue with any of the connected cameras the PowerBox intelligently isolates the connection allowing you to reset only the affected output. No need to reboot all the other cameras, saving time and the potential for other issues to arise.

The PowerBox has been designed to work with APS-C / cropped frame cameras that operate from 7.4v Li-ion batteries. Compatibility with higher current drawing cameras such as full frame models is achievable however in some cases you may not be able to use all the available power outlets of the PowerBox. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
The PowerBox has been designed for any set-up that requires the safe and reliable powering of multiple cameras simultaneously.
It works. Worldwide
The PowerBox multi camera power supply works worldwide and accepts voltages of 100-250V at frequencies between 50-60Hz.
Intelligent trip and reset
If there’s an issue with any of the connected cameras the PowerBox intelligently isolates the connection allowing you to reset only the affected output. No need to reboot all the other cameras, saving time and the potential for other issues to arise.
Fully regulated and protected power
The PowerBox mimics the operation of Li-ion camera batteries and outputs 9VDC from the output sockets. It connects to multiple cameras via DC Couplers (dummy batteries). These vary depending on the make and model of camera and we can supply DC Couplers for most cameras.
Powers any combination of compatible cameras
The PowerBox can be used with any combination of compatible cameras – see below
