Comments about Bolt Cyclone Power Pack for Camera Flash with Canon CZ Cable & Charger Kit:
I was excited when I saw this battery pack as I had been considering one for a long time and Quantum seemed to cost more than I wanted to pay. So at about $100 less, I bought this battery to be used on a location shoot.
As soon as I got it, I charged it for 3 days. Then I immediately tested it out on my Canon 580 EX II. I changed the settings on my Speedlite to draw from the external battery and it seemed to work. So I put it away. Then two days before my location photo shoot, I charged it again for two days. Then I checked the status indicator and it showed a full charge. So I packed up my gear and went happily on my way. When I got to the photoshoot three hours later, to my dismay, the battery was dead. I could not understand it. It was quite frustrating.
Then I took it home and charged it again. Again it showed a full charged, then I unplugged it and turned if off and left it for an hour. Again the battery was dead... Maybe I just had a defective one but I am going to get a Quantum...
