AKG CU800 Charging Unit
Description
AKG CU800 Charging Unit
The CU800 is a purpose-built charging station designed for the DMS800 and DMS700 wireless systems. Its dual independent charging slots and intelligent thermal management ensure your DHT800 and DPT800 transmitters stay charged and ready between takes, keeping recording sessions flowing without downtime or battery anxiety.
Charging & Power Management
Two fully independent charging slots accommodate either DHT800 or DPT800 transmitters simultaneously, allowing you to charge two units at once. The CU800 employs pulse charging technology—applying high instantaneous voltages without thermal stress—and automatically determines optimum charge current for the connected batteries. A built-in cooling fan maintains safe cell temperature during operation, protecting battery longevity across your production schedule.
Studio Integration & Compatibility
Batteries remain inside the transmitter throughout the charging process, eliminating the need for removal or external battery handling—a seamless fit into any session workflow. The compact black chassis measures 194 × 85 × 82 mm and can be rack-mounted using an optional 19" rack-mount unit for integrated system setups in permanent or mobile recording rigs. Operating voltage is 12V DC at 2A max, with universal AC input of 100–240V AC.

Frequently Asked Questions
What transmitters does the CU800 charge?
The CU800 charges DHT800 and DPT800 transmitters from the DMS800 and DMS700 wireless systems. Both transmitter types can charge simultaneously in the two independent slots.
Do I need to remove the battery from the transmitter to charge it?
No. The CU800 charges transmitters with batteries installed—the integrated charging contacts connect directly to the transmitter without requiring battery removal or external handling.
How long does it take to charge a transmitter?
Typical charging time is 1.5 hours when charging a single transmitter. The CU800 applies pulse-charge technology and automatically optimizes current for each battery, with a built-in cooling fan preventing thermal stress.
Can I charge two transmitters at the same time?
Yes. The CU800 has two completely independent charging slots, allowing you to charge two DHT800 or DPT800 transmitters simultaneously without any interaction between channels.
Can the CU800 be rack-mounted?
The CU800 itself is compact and sits on a shelf or desk, but an optional 19-inch rack-mount unit is available for integrated system setups. The unit operates on universal AC input of 100–240V AC.
