p.1 #1 · Battery options for a pair of Calumet Travelite 750r


Those that have the Calumet Travelite 750r, what do you use for battery power for them when "off the grid?" I see Bowens has a battery kit, but I was wondering what others are using. Thanks!

I use the Travelpak on occasion and it works fine for me. I've never put more than one head on it (Travelite 750), though, so I've never had to really push it.

Thanks Steve Wylie, I actually obtained a Vagabond Mini Lithium. So we'll see how that does with the 750r(s). Otherwise I'll use it for a lower wattage 3rd light.

When I purchased mine, I bought the Calumet battery pack. Small and lightwight and will power two 750's for about 150 shots.

Thanks Fishrising! I am hoping to hear that it works great! I was looking at the Calumet pak but would prefer the VBMII based on the cost/value reports. Do you use the AC cord since the VBM has 110 outlets?

In researching using the Travelite 750R with the Vagabond II, I came upon this thread and just want you to be aware of a problem that arose using it with the Vagabond Mini. http://photo.net/photography-lighting-equipment-techniques-forum/00ZzAz?unified_p=1
