Hawk-Woods NPD-8S

The Hawk-Woods NP1 data battery system offers communication readouts to feature run-time remaining, percentage of battery, and current draw. Over the years, NP1 batteries have been solid and very robust, offering peace of mind upon powering audio equipment. Moving forward with this style battery, Hawk-Woods are offering an upgraded NP1 solution to feature communication to a distribution shoe via a display; all existing kit will still work with the new and improved NP1 setup as long as at least one NP1 data battery is being used for communication.

To begin with, a distribution unit NPD-8S will be available with a display, boasting up to 8x Hirose outputs, six of these switched in threes and two un-switched. Using a different connector as an input allows for more current due to Hirose's low current value, meaning you will be able to take power from each Hirose available! A belt clip, which can be rotated, will allow you to position the distro ideally within your audio/sound bag!

The NP1 data battery offers communication readouts to feature run-time remaining, percentage of battery, and current draw. The display will feature this information once an NP1 data battery is connected.

For power in use, NPD1 with battery NP-98D and cable LA-8.
