Does anyone know if there is a battery pack that can be hooked up to this monolight? I would hate to have to buy another one that can use battery.

You'd have to have an external battery pack that accepts standard plugs like Paul C. Buff's Vagabond Mini. That being said, while I own two of these and they do work great, they are throw-away strobes in that the strobe tube is not replaceable. Something I didn't realize when I bought them. They do work great, but a shame that when it dies, I have to toss it out.

I use the Photogenic ISB2183 ION Lithium-ion Pure Sine Wave Inverter System that I purchased through Adorama. It is a portable battery that you plug your moonlight into just like you would into a wall socket. It has two outlets enabling you to operate two monolights at the same time.

I purchased replacement batteries on Amazon when I bought the lights. I'd sell you strike of nine if I could.Shop for the lights again and you should get suggestions for the batteries required.Good luck

Yes, Ive actually done this myself. You can either pick up an 8 AAA or AA battery holder and hook the lights directly up to that (might want to put the battery case in a plastic bag so they dont get wet, mine did) or to save space you can hook up 2 9V batteries to a voltage regulator circuit which you can make for cheap with parts from radioshack. I did the thing with 2 9V and it was small enough to fit in one of those tiny project boxes which i then bolted directly to the bottom of my board.

When I purchased mine, I bought batteries separately. I would buy two sets of batteries and one charger. The light is great but when the batteries are out of charge the light is completely out. I have bought 3 of these lights.

The Brooklyn Lantern is a good product. It provides good light for walking or on a table. Just keep extra batteries on hand, like everything else, people forget you need batteries. I saw them at several stores including "Walgreens" for the same price as on line. Check out Home Depot, they have some great LED lights. Like everything, it's a matter or personal choice.

Try that clear battery sleeve. I haven't used aaa battery's in mine yet. I ordered extra 3.7. them large batteries. For maximum light output

Buy the battery and charger. I tried using CR123A batteries and burned the bulb out in one of my flashlights. You can search amazon and find a vendor that will sell you the ultrafire brand li-on 2pack with charger for around 13.00. It's well worth it.

Good light but battery is very bad... it is very bright when it works. . I would not buy again due to the type of battery it uses

Currently no. We do not provide a battery back for now but light box with a battery pack is in our plan, the ideal product will come out soon. Sorry if any inconvenience is caused for this matter. Thank you for your kind attention.

I doubt the batteries that come with it will last that long. I'd buy some real quality batteries or just carry extras. As for the flashlight? I love it!!! Very bright . I'm going to buy another one soon.

No...it's separate (which I didn't realize when I purchased it) and the battery pack is a bit expensive. I now have a light with no battery pack.

Dear Customer, Please note that this light only works with 18650 battery. 18650 batteries are very available in the market, by brands like Sony, Panasonic etc. You may want to purchase an extra battery to complement the one shipped with the light. In the near future Cycle Beam may offer individual replacement 18650 batteries in our webstore to make it even easy for our customers to get it. Hope that I answered your question.

The light takes the 18650 3000mAh 3.7V Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery. You have to buy that separately. Try an UltraFire, they work fine. BUT...as for the light, see my review on this scope combo. The light is the worst part of it - you'll want to buy a better light. Still worth the cost overall.

Ours wouldn't hold a charge long enough to get to the lake. We bought an Interstate Batteries LED Spotlight, non rechargeable, for a lot less money and much more dependability. Don't know if Amazon has it but it is well worth getting. Check it out. Extremely powerful and very bright.

It's one awesome flashlight that uses/requires one 18650 battery. Included are two very lame 18650 batteries and charger. Damn good flashlight, well worth the price, but the batteries don't last more than 30 mins. I've replaced the batteries with some high-end Panasonics, and those go all night if need be. I haven't really used the charger because I already own an Intellacharge i4 pro, I just wanted the extra charger as a backup.

honestly though I'd recommend you to save your money and buy a name brand bike light with a lithium battery. This ones been kind of a pain. definatley a tad rudimentary for my taste. an indicator light for battery life would be helpful and the battery pack is a bi&*$ to lug around if your not sporting a Wal-Mart bike with a ginormously thick frame...

The lights are great. It does not come with the batteries. You need to purchase v-mount batteries or if you use np-f serie batteries there is an adaptor for it that costs around $230.
