How many cycles?

2 posts
  1. Hey there,I tried out my 'new' DS-125 yesterday and am happy with my first results using two strobes. However, the strobe only lasted for about 150 shots. It had been sat in a Peli case for three years before I purchased it and had only been recharged before being sent to me. How many charge/discharge cycles am I looking at before it reaches full capacity?Cheers, Joe

  2. The Ikelite manual says you can get "250 full power flashes" from a fully charged NiMH pack. You may have a NiCAD battery pack - I am pretty sure they sold the early DS-125 strobes with that type of battery pack - and those may not have have the same output.
