2.1 Power supply
The flashgun can be operated with the following
types of batteries:
• 4 NiCad batteries, type IEC KR 15/51, for very
short recycling times.
• 4 dry-cell alkaline-manganese batteries, type IEC
LR6, for moderate power requirements.
• 4 nickel-metal-hydride batteries (size AA)
Do not use lithium batteries!
We recommend the B 28 charger for NiCad batteries
(optional extra).
Batteries are exhausted when the recycling time
exceeds 60 seconds.
Batteries should be removed when the mecablitz is
not going to be used for a prolonged period.
Disposal of batteries
Do not dispose of spent batteries with domestic rub-
bish.
Please return spent batteries to collecting points
should they exist in your country!
