APD Main Distribution Box
The APD Main Distribution Box is a portable power distribution adaptor that uses NP batteries to provide regulated 12V outputs for professional audio and electronic equipment.
Overview
The Hawk-Woods APD Power Distribution Adaptor is designed for sound recordists and other professionals who need a reliable, portable power source. It serves as a convenient alternative to traditional battery boxes, allowing operators to use the NP battery range they already carry, including NP-50 and NP-98 batteries . The device can accommodate up to six NP batteries, providing a substantial power supply for field operations.
Power and Outputs
The APD delivers 12V regulated output through multiple connectors:
- Four female 4-pin XLR outputs
- Four Hirose sockets, switched in pairs When fully loaded with six NP-98 batteries, the APD can supply up to 588 Watts of power, making it suitable for powering sound carts, mixers, and other professional equipment . The design ensures stable voltage and reliable performance in demanding environments.
Portability and Design
The APD features a side-mounted handle, allowing it to be either hand-held or trolley-mounted depending on operational needs. Its compact dimensions (8.2 x 19 x 21.7 cm) and weight (approximately 1.389 kg) make it highly portable while still delivering significant power . This makes it ideal for on-location recording or situations where mobility is essential.
Applications
- Field audio recording: Powers mixers, recorders, and carts efficiently
- Temporary setups: Provides a flexible power solution without requiring mains electricity
- Modular electronic systems: Can integrate with other NP battery-powered devices The APD is praised for its practicality and reliability, offering a massive power potential in a compact, user-friendly package . It is particularly valued by professionals who need a portable, high-capacity power source without the bulk of traditional battery boxes.
