Hello Armando

Your support means a lot to us, and we truly value the suggestions you've shared regarding the VB212.

Regarding the VB212 D-tap port discharge issue you mentioned, it's important to note that this isn't a widespread product concern as outlined. There might be a slight delay when the battery stops discharging due to various factors like current input and specifications. However, it doesn't typically result in nearly half the charge being lost, as you indicated.

We deeply respect user feedback and viewpoints. If you ever encounter any issues with our product, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Your feedback, along with that of other users, is incredibly valuable to us. We regularly collect and relay this feedback to our R&D team for further enhancements. Rest assured, we are continuously updating and improving our products based on user input.

Thank you again for your support and suggestion

Loved the video, nice and in depth and non-biased review, my only concern with this video was the thumbnail, to show the battery smoking in the thumbnail with the title as well, made me believe this video would talk about this battery exploding. Then to click and watch the video and find it has nothing to do with that makes me trust the video less as it is click bait. I think this is a line a lot of creators are struggling to walk to make the thumbnail as engaging as possible but it should avoid being misleading just to get views.

That thumbnail was a bit misleading and I don’t know if you have heard, but there has been problems with the small rig batteries as a matter fact, one of my batteries cause my FX 30 to freeze up on a job. I’m a little leery of the batteries now I’m probably switching companies. And when I spoke to one of the salesman at B&H, he is informed me that a lot of people have been coming back with defective small rig batteries

That clickbait thumbnail made this my fastest “do not recommend channel” click ever.

Very misleading thumbnail dude - thought there was a risk of explosion.

What’s up with that thumbnail, misleading like all these YouTubers. Thinking I shouldn’t go for Caleb’s battery cause the thumbnail shows overheating.

Hey everyone, I want to be upfront with you. I created a thumbnail that I thought was lighthearted and funny at the time, but I realize now it didn’t land the way I intended. I’ve heard your feedback loud and clear, and I’ve updated the thumbnail. Misleading anyone was never my intention, and I take full responsibility for missing the mark.

Not only is the thumbnail blatant clickbait, you’re throwing Caleb Pike under the bus with it. You’re almost certainly one of the many people who have learned from him like most of the people who watch your channel. You should change the thumbnail and apologize to Caleb at minimum.

Absolutely spectacular decision to promote a guy’s collab battery with his product on fire. I used to like this channel…

That thumbnail should be considered slander and I can't believe you've resorted to such clickbait

Great video! Honest review, obviously really thought out! I've worked these batteries a bunch and still learned new features! Well done Mondo!

I’d like to share my experience with the SmallRig mini V-mount batteries. I own three VB99 —two original versions and one PRO—and all three malfunctioned within just a few months of purchase. On the positive side, SmallRig’s customer service has been impeccable; in each case, they promptly sent me a replacement unit free of charge. However, these issues were incredibly frustrating, particularly as they occurred during film shoots abroad, where waiting for the replacement battery was no option. There's also the environmental impact to consider, as nearly-new batteries ended up discarded. I own many SmallRig products, and while they generally offer good value for the money, I believe they have reliability issues that can be problematic in professional settings.

I’m unsure how this while thumbnail thing works on YouTube, and maybe this was auto generated. But a smoking battery thumbnail is a really bad look unless this thing actually overheated.

And if this thing did, in fact, overheat and Caleb is, in fact, a “friend, ” perhaps you should have addressed this him privately before publishing that thumbnail or this review?
