Product details
Overview
Spare battery for the MANUS Bodypack Lite. Keep a charged pack ready so long-range wireless capture continues without stopping the take to recharge.
Compatibility
- MANUS Bodypack Lite — supplied by MANUS as the battery for this unit
This is not a glove battery. MANUS Metagloves Pro and Metagloves Pro Haptic use a different, smaller snap-fit cell that seats directly into the hand module — order the MANUS Battery Set for Metagloves Pro instead. The two are not interchangeable.
How it mounts
- Hook-and-loop face for secure attachment to the bodypack, harness, or belt
- Connects over USB-C — no proprietary connector
- Multi-segment LED charge indicator
- Stays put through movement, unlike a magnetic-only mount
What the Bodypack Lite does
The Bodypack Lite is MANUS's body-worn receiver for extending glove range well beyond the standard USB dongle, which reaches roughly 15 m. It's used on mocap stages, large-volume capture, and any setup where the performer moves away from the workstation.
Because it's worn on the performer rather than sitting at the desk, a flat pack means stopping the take and unclipping hardware mid-session. A charged spare removes that.
Who needs a spare
- Virtual production and mocap stages running back-to-back takes
- Multi-performer shoots where each bodypack needs its own rotation
- Robotics and teleoperation sessions with untethered operators
- Full-day capture exceeding a single charge cycle
- Travelling rigs where one flat pack stops the shoot
