FAQs
Is the Swit Mino-S140 airline safe?
At 140Wh, this battery typically exceeds the standard 100Wh limit for carry-on luggage on many airlines. Always check with your specific airline carrier regarding lithium-ion battery transport policies.
Can I charge the battery via D-tap?
Yes, the D-tap port supports both power output and input for charging the unit using a compatible D-tap charger.
Does it have a power indicator?
Yes, it features an integrated LED display that shows remaining capacity and status.
Can I use the USB-C port to power my camera?
If your camera supports USB-C PD power delivery, you can use the USB-C port on the Mino-S140 to power it directly.
How long does it take to charge fully?
Charging time depends on the charger used; using a high-wattage USB-C PD charger will be significantly faster than using a standard V-mount plate charger.
Troubleshooting
Battery does not power the camera
Verify that the V-mount plate is fully locked and the battery pins are clean. Check if the camera requires a specific voltage threshold.
USB-C charging is not working
Ensure you are using a compatible USB-C PD power adapter; standard phone chargers may not provide sufficient wattage to charge the battery.
Battery drains faster than expected
Check if other devices connected to the USB-A or D-tap ports are drawing excessive power. Disconnect unused accessories to preserve battery life.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the Swit Mino-S140, ensure the battery is fully charged using a standard V-mount charger or the USB-C PD port before your first session. When mounting to your camera, align the V-lock plate securely to ensure the contact pins click into place.
For care, avoid dropping the battery, as internal cells can be damaged by hard impacts. Store the battery in a cool, dry place and aim to keep it at approximately 50-70% charge if storing for extended periods. Periodically check the contact pins for any debris or oxidation to ensure consistent power delivery.
