There is coming a TTL version. Nice feature however I stopped using TTL a long time ago because I like manual more.
Second version is the socket of the bulb and the third the power socket. I count when the parts can not be exchanged.

The new bulb sockets have round holes instead of square ones and the bulbs have extra bits of metal on the leggs.

I had an issue with the battery pack after 30 days. They emailed how to return it and sent me a new one no charge, I did have to pay to send it back. Randy

Did a test after charging the Battery 42 Full power pops in a row, two days later 50 Full power pops in a row, so all is good! ![]() Good to hear! - but concerned that you were asked to pay return shipping. Can you please email me with your order number? Helen@adorama.com

Did a test after charging the Battery 42 Full power pops in a row, two days later 50 Full power pops in a row, so all is good! ![]() I can easily get 50 (or 60) full power pops in a row with my original Godox branded battery purchased in early July. My problem is that I can only get about 230 to 240 full power pops after a full charge before the battery is fully depleted. This is done 50 pops at a time with at least 10 minutes rest between each set. The real issue I have is that after about 200 shots I am still showing 2 to 3 leds lit. This would lead one to believe that the battery is going to provide near 400 pops as promised by the manufacturer. In my case my unit goes from 2 led's to completely dead in another 30 to 40 pops beyond 200. I've repeated this behavior twice. I have a new battery coming in from Edward at Cheetahstand tomorrow. I'll test it the same way to see if there is a difference. I'm hoping the led charge indicator works better with the Cheetah battery and that I get over 300 pops on a full charge. Based on the non linear way voltage drops in a Lithium cell I'm not sure how much advance warning I'll get even with a perfect battery pack. Lithium cells tend to kind of work right up to the point they can't and then fail like a light switch has been flipped off. Keeping my fingers crossed at this point. Dave

It seems like you can only buy the battery + pack for $120 instead of buying the replacement battery. Flickr

I have the same symptoms and issues, but only get about 170 pops. I have to send it back to Eachshot.com at my expense. I was being penny-wise and pound foolish buying from them instead of Cheetahstand. 5DIII Gripped
