The Photogenic Ion Lithium-ion Pure Sine Wave Inverter System allows you to take your studio strobes on the road or off the road without electricity and without noisy generators or bulky old-style inverters. Weighing in at only 3.5 lb including its battery, the Ion measures only 7.5 x 4.4 x 3.3" but is able to deliver hundreds or even thousands of full power flashes depending on the flash head in use. For example, Photogenic's 1,000W/s PL1000DR gets 300 full power flashes on a fully charged battery while their AKC160 will get a whopping 2,050 flashes from the same battery. Of course, you can double or triple your capacity by simply purchasing extra batteries which can be charged apart from the inverter. Extra chargers are available to charge more than 1 battery concurrently.

Convenience features include a USB port to power computers and other electronic devices and an LED "fuel gauge" that allows you to check on remaining power at a glance. The system includes the ION Inverter, battery, charger, light stand clamp and strap.

Note: flash capacity specs are based on Photogenic flash heads but other brands of flash heads may be used with the inverter. Power input is 100 to 265VAC, 50/60Hz but output is 120V only.

A: You can use that battery inverter but you will need this to plug the camera into it, Canon AC-E6N AC Adapter and DC Coupler DR-E6 Kit B&H # CADRE6K (B&H Kit).And this is another option and it is the adapter and battery Tether Tools Case Relay Camera Power System Kit with Coupler for Canon Cameras with LP-E6 Battery B&H # TECRUPS110K4 (B&H Kit).The bonus on this by Tether Tools is you can add a battery that uses a usb connection and it will not stop the camera.

A: Plug the cord that comes with light in. It is a standard grounded plug. Buy a spare battery incase you have a very long assignment. I have never had the battery run out of power. I use photogenic lights too. Great well built products

Q: 9. What is the typical time to charge the unit so it has a 100% charge

A: I only had it for a week, then returned it. Charged it twice. Took about 3-4 hrs. My problem was it didn't give nearly the amount of flashes that they advertised. Maybe it was the units I was using it with, photogenic 1250s. I don't know. Hope this helps.

Q: 10. Does this come with Australian power plugs or just USA ?

A: I am in the U. I purchased mine From B&H for shipment to the US, and received only a US plug.Additionally & Tangently:It has made using a photogenic Power light with a larger umbrella/softbox much more practical on location.I use Quantum Flashes for most things, but when I need the extra power, this works well.
