2.3. A brand new and fully-recharged power pack will be able to support approximately 90 - 115 full power flashes of the Allure BP320 studio flash, which will have an energy capacity of about 270WS when used with this battery pack, without the modeling lamp. - Page 2 2.4. There are the following indicators, switches and sockets on the front panel of the pack – 1. Flash Socket 5. Main ON/OFF Switch 2. Battery Level Indicator Lamps (4X) 6. Charger Socket 3. Input Circuit Pilot Lamp 7. Charger/Flash Selection Switch 4.
- Page 3 (e) When the pack has been fully recharged, the green Input Status Indicator Lamp will blink, instead of remaining steady, to indicate completion of the process. Flip the Main ON/OFF Switch off. Disconnect the unit from the charger. Note: The front panel of the pack may become warm during the charging process.
- Page 4 When the studio flash has been fully re-charged, the Output Status Indicator Lamp will change from a steady light to blinking. Note: The blinking of the indicator lamp actually is the result of the DC Power Pack constantly re-charging the studio flash to keep the energy level at the predetermined level to ensure a correct flash output at all times.
- Page 5 5.2. Condition of Indicator Lamps during Studio Flash Recharge Cycle When the recharge of a studio flash is in progress, the Battery Level Indicator Lamps may flicker or even go off. This is a normal phenomenon and should not cause any alarm. When the re-charge is complete, the light of the indicator lamps will return to a steady condition and the indicator lamps will restore themselves as a correct reference for the approximate level of battery power remaining.
- Page 6 Recharge the unit at least two to three times a month (see (3.3.) above). Recharge as early as possible when battery level is low (see (5.1.) above). SPECIFICATIONS Charge Input Requirement DC18V, 600mA Charger Input Socket Round coaxial type with centre -ve and perimeter Output Voltage/Current Approx.
