Using Your Flash with Your PocketMax
Using Your Flash with Your PocketMax
To ensure that you don’t miss important moments when you’re shooting, your PocketMax can recycle a shoe-
mount flash at full power in approximately 1.5 seconds. You can expect up to 1000 full-power flashes, depending
on the specific unit you’re using.
To get the best use out of your PocketMax
• Use the PocketMax in environments with moderate temperatures. When lithium-ion batteries get cold, they
lose some of their ability to supply power. However, this doesn’t mean that they’ve lost their charge, and
they regain the ability to supply power when their temperature returns to a more moderate level.
• Don’t fire more than 20 full-power flashes in a row. Exceeding the recommended number can overheat and
even damage your flash. The PocketMax has a much higher power output than the AA batteries used by
your flash unit. Refer to your flash’s manual for information on its continuous full-power flash capacity and
limitations.
• When not in use, unplug all devices from the PocketMax to prevent draining the battery’s power.
