Bebob all charged up for CABSAT 2021 with new B-Mount product range German battery manufacturer Bebob Factory GmbH will showcase its newly available B-Mount product range for the first time at CABSAT. This includes its B-Mount batteries, hot-swap adapters and chargers, along with customised V-Mount and Gold Mount adapter plates.
