Subject: Power pack for Sb-26/SB-28 [19]

I'm going to be doing a friends wedding next month and I need an
external power source for my SB-26. I would expect two improvements from
this power source a. shorter recharge times b. more flashes that from
internal batteries.

Can anyone suggest a power source. I'd like it to work with an SB-28
also.

Thanks,
Mike


Mike,
The Quantum batteries are highly regarded.

According to my Quantum catalog, you could use a Quantum Bantam, a QB1+, or
Turbo battery.

Here is some performance info from Quantum on these batteries. All batteries
used with the same flash (Vivitar 283):

Battery                 Recycle         Number of shots
Bantam                  2-3.5 sec       210
QB1+                    3.5-5 sec       250
Turbo                   1-2 seconds     350

You will also need the appropriate cable:

For an SB26 (they do not list one for a SB28, but I am sure they have one):

W/ Bantam: Cable XKZ
With QB1+: Cable MKZ
Turbo: Cable CK

You can find Quantum at www.qtm.com
