OM SYSTEM BLX-1 Lithium-Ion Battery

For photographers who refuse to miss a moment, the OM System BLX-1 Lithium-Ion Battery is the dependable energy source your OM-1 system deserves. Engineered for extended life, fast recharge, and consistent output, it lets you shoot confidently through long sessions, extreme temperatures, or days on the road.

With a capacity of 2280 mAh and a rated 7.2 V, the BLX-1 provides the endurance needed for still photography, 4 K video, and high-speed bursts. It’s built with smart-cell circuitry that communicates directly with your camera to display accurate power levels and prevent overcharging or overheating.

The battery recharges via the OM System BCX-1 Dual Charger or directly inside the camera using a USB-C PD power source, giving you flexibility at home or in the field. Thanks to its efficient design, a single charge delivers hundreds of stills or hours of video capture, keeping up with demanding workflows and unpredictable conditions.

People appreciate how compact and lightweight it is — small enough to fit in any pocket, yet powerful enough to handle full-day shoots. Built with OM System’s rugged standards, it’s resistant to performance loss over time, ensuring stable power through years of use.

Whether you’re hiking in harsh weather, filming in the studio, or travelling overseas, the BLX-1 ensures your OM-1 system stays ready from first frame to last.
