Li-ion BATTERY PACK 4067

The 4060.1 DS160 comes standard with rechargeable Li-ion battery pack and flash
diffuser (page 9). The Li-ion battery pack requires 4067.1 Smart Charger (page 19), not
included except with certain strobe packages.
Rechargeable Li-ion battery pack 4067 is compatible only with Ikelite's DS160 and
DS161 strobe. The rear section of the strobe is the Li-ion battery pack for the strobe.
Additional Li-ion packs (rear sections) 4067 are available through an Ikelite dealer.
Battery pack is also compatible with older DS125 and DS160 strobes.
A fully charged Li-ion pack provides at least 450 full power flashes. It consists of six
sub-C-cell industrial grade Li-ion batteries.
The Li-ion pack does NOT remain waterproof when removed from the strobe.
Therefore, we suggest keeping the open portion of the Li-ion pack pointed down while
removing to eliminate the possibility of water droplets falling inside. The Li-ion
batteries remain permanently secured inside the pack. DO NOT disassemble the
Li-ion pack or charger.
The DS160 accepts the same 4066.5 NiMH module used on older DS161, DS160 and
DS125 Substrobes. If you intend to use an older battery pack on your new Substrobe,
please reference the notice dated 6/22/09 on the following webpage:

CHARGING THE Li-ion PACK

Recharge the Li-ion pack after each use. Recharge the battery pack if the modeling light
dims or if the recycle time exceeds 8-10 seconds; batteries are nearly depleted. Recharge
the battery pack once every 12 months.
CHARGING THE Li-ion PACK WITH NiMH CHARGER
When recharging the Li-on Pack with an older NiMH
charger, a solid red LED indicates the Pack is
charging. When the LED is NOT lit, the Pack is
fully charged.

CAUTION:

DO NOT use the older AULT charger, part
#BCW-306-125-01-03N, which has a green
power LED and yellow charge LED on the
charger front.
