Cleaning Your Compact Battery Pack
Tip:
If you’re shooting in a very cold environment, you can address this issue by alternating sets of AA
batteries: Keep one set indoors at room temperature or in an interior pocket next to your body while
using the other pack, and then switch the two sets when the one in use starts losing its ability to power
your flash.
Cleaning Your Compact Battery Pack
If the metal contacts in the battery holder get dirty or corroded, you can clean them with isopropyl alcohol
(rubbing alcohol) with a cotton swab. A pencil or pen eraser can also be used to rub corrosion off of contacts.
Do not touch the metal contacts with your fingers, as this can transfer oil and residues to the contacts.
Keep the outside of the pack clean by removing dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Never attempt to wash the pack
in water or use flammable solutions to clean it.
