If correct, it makes sense that to power the DR-E6P will also require a PD3.1 compliant supply. I purchased from Amazon the Anker A1289 (Anker Power Bank, 24,000mAh 3-Port Portable Charger with 140W Output, Smart Digital Display) which is PD3.1 compatible.I have a Canon Cooling Fan CF-R20EP connected to the bottom of my Canon R5 Mark II camera. I plugged the DR-E6P into the left battery slot. I haven't field tested it, but in my office it works fine. Photos attached showing the camera recognizing the DR-E6P.I will update this review if I find any issues with this setup. It took 4 hours of 4k fine 24 fps recording before the Anker power bank discharged from 100 to 25 percent in an extended video recording test. ### ⭐ Doesn't come with AC adapter; doesn't work with most AC adapters *by B***S on August 26, 2024* None of my USB-C power adapters will power this thing. It only draws 6W or so when using my R5 mk2 as a webcam, but if I plug it into a 45W USB-C wall adapter, the camera refuses to turn on. I eventually figured out that it works with this big backup battery I have, but only if that backup battery isn't simultaneously charging.I can run my LAPTOP from that battery while it's charging, but not this camera battery adapter.I guess I just have to plug in the battery to the wall at night and to the camera during the day. What a disaster. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ USB C Is here! But at what cost? *by B***T on October 8, 2024* Purchased this for use on my new R5mkII cinerig. I have run some tests with common Vmount batteries here in my studio, details below:Stated specs from manual of Canon DR-E6P. Note these are not stated as voltage ranges, rather worded with "or" between. Could be translation issue:INPUT: 15v or 20v DCOUTPUT: 10v or 7.5 DCOnto my direct tests. I only recently switched to vmount for my main system, so while I have a small testing pool it should be informative.Some good and bad:>Smallrig VB99: Works at nominal 20.1v DC through USBC port, also able to power my Atomos Shinobi II simultaneously through dtap. Camera pulls approx 15w when recording in 4k fine. Seems to passively draw battery even when camera is off @ .1watt>Smallrig VB50: Camera does not work. Shows 15v DC activated on battery display, but camera will not power cycle. Unfortunate as this is my favorite lightweight battery, just bought it.>Neewer Mini 6800mAh Vmount: Works at nominal 20v DC through USBC port, also able to power my Atomos Shinobi II simultaneously through dtap.Clearly there is a spec requirement on the DR-E6P;>The stated specs on the VB50 are 45w PD3.0, and the VB99 is 65w PD3.0. Canon states the r5mkII needs "45w and above". In theory, the VB50 should be good, but clearly there is a discrepancy. Perhaps it cannot supply the 20v needed?>Could the small wattage difference be the issue here? Or is there more to it, such as the stated spec being incorrect on either the DR-E6P, or on the batteries themselves?>Could a DTap-USB C adapter work to power the camera via the VB50? I am using the Dtap to power my monitor, but conceivably the monitor could use a different source such as the DC jacks.More testing the follow, in talks with Smallrig engineers to learn more. ## Frequently Bought Together - Canon DC Coupler DR-E6P - Canon Battery Pack LP-E6P - SMALLRIG R5 II Cage for Canon R5 Mark II, Aluminum Alloy Camera Video Cage with Cold Shoe Mount, 1/4''-20 & 3/8''-16 Threaded Holes, Quick Release Plate for Arca-Swiss - 4978 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/663447127-canon-dc-coupler-dr-e6p](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/663447127-canon-dc-coupler-dr-e6p) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
