Ulanzi BG5 Handheld Battery Grip

Ulanzi BG5 Battery Grip with Portable Power

The Ulanzi BG5 Handheld Battery Grip is a camera accessory that combines a handheld grip with built-in power bank functionality. It suits buyers who want steadier handheld support and a portable power source in one unit.

Grip and Power in One Body

The BG5 is positioned as both a battery grip and a power bank, so it can support handheld shooting while also providing power to compatible devices. That makes it useful when you want fewer separate accessories in your kit.

92.16Wh Battery Capacity

The built-in battery is rated at 92.16Wh. Ulanzi lists reference runtimes for its C01 and EC65 lights, and the charging time is listed at about 135–140 minutes under Ulanzi lab conditions.

100W USB-C Bidirectional Charging

The Type-C port supports bidirectional input and output with PD 3.0, up to 100W. For best charging efficiency, Ulanzi recommends using PD3.0-compatible devices and cables.

Readable Battery Status

An LED display shows remaining battery level at a glance when you press the power button. The indicator layout helps you check charge status before a shoot instead of guessing from the battery’s condition.

Mounting and Use Checks

The BG5 includes a top 1/4" screw with a retractable locating pin, a locking knob, and a bottom 1/4" threaded hole. The lanyard hole is also listed, while the lanyard itself is sold separately.

Ulanzi lists the grip at approximately 585g and gives the body dimensions as 53 x 44.5 x 196mm. That size and weight are worth checking if you want a handheld accessory that still fits comfortably in a bag.
