4.1 Suitable batteries

The mecablitz can be operated with any of the following bat- teries:

4 NiCad batteries, type IEC KR 15/51. They permit very fast recycling and are economical in use because they are rechargeable.

4 nickel metal hydride batteries. They have a significantly higher capacity than NiCad batteries and are less harmful to the environment (no cadmium).

4 alkaline manganese dry-cell batteries, type IEC LR6. Maintenance-free power source for moderate power re- quirements.

Do not use lithium batteries! Their higher cell voltage may damage the electronic system of the flash unit.

Remove the batteries from the mecablitz if the flash unit is not going to be used for an extended period of time.
