Buy: Green Extreme CB12 Compact Battery Pack for Canon Flashes

i reciently purchased two of there , one for my sony HLV-60M and one for my Sony HLV-58M and neither work with either flash . flashes work with internal batteries but not with either external pack connector goes in about 2/3rds and stops but this seems to be by design. What?s wrong

bought two and neither work in either flash

I bought this a part of a kit with a Flashpoint Zoom TTL R2 flash for Nikon but the battery pack is for Cannon Flashes.  How do they expect me to plug it in.  Really guys!!!!  Bought it 2 years ago but never had need for it till now so I didnt try to plug it in to the socket it WASN'T made for till today.

Pretty much worthless

This pack does what it is suppose to do. Its works great.

Battery pack review

Not a rechargeable battery pack. Read description carefully

Not a rechargeable

Looks like it was advertised and appears to be a well built piece of equipment . I can’t wait to try it.

Battery pack

Very good battery pack. Allows flash to recycle extremely fast. I use them with the Nikon SB910 and SB5000 flash units. I have used other brands with shoulder straps and didn’t think I would like the belt strap. With the belt attachment I no longer have to worry about it falling off my shoulder. The pack can be placed anywhere around the belt.

Fast recycling

Know that the plug is configured for SB-910 and SB-5000 only as stipulated. Quite well-made and professional.

Green extreme Battery pack

It is a lot bigger then the picture looked, but with that being said I am so happy I got this now I can shoot with confidence of not always worried about losing a shot due to no flash

Shoot with confidence with this product

Super battery pack. I use this with my Nikon SB 900 flash and it works great. The pack gives me the power I need and recycled fast. The pack has a light that lets you know how much power is left in the pack. Good quality and much cheaper than the nikon brand. I am happy with the purchase.

Super Pack

Bought this for my Nikon SB-24 Flash. Description said it would fit.
But it does not fit. Return was not possible so trying to sell it through Facebook marketplace.
Design looks great though n I think it will work well with compatible flashes.
Alas, it didn't for me.

Not compatible with my Nikon Flash

Works great!  I bought three of them just because...!!!

Green Extreme CB12 Compact Battery Pack

this was my replacement from other unit I bought few month ago which was very temperamental in its performance. Thank goodness to Unit was under Adorama warranty but stil costed me a return shipping fee wich I don't get any credit for its failure.

Adds more weight to your bag And not cost effective

Was shooting with this on April 12.  The 30 minute time out is very fustrating.  When using 2 of these and working with models I expected faster speedlite refresh.  But maybe they were just shutting them selfs off?

CB12

I load with NiMH and, if necessary, can get "Emergency" batteries if I need them. ;-)   GREAT VALUE!!!  :-)  BIG BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!!! ;-)

Great value!!! :-)  Uses AA batteries that you can get ANYWHERE

This is just a container for 12 AA batteries, it works great but charging 12 batteries is not for everyone

here if you need it.

Very good for the price. Ya can't beat that price.
Just wish it had a detachable cord.

Very good for the price

Gives extra power to flash bit faster recycle time than just AA battery

GOOD

YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

The built of this product is unbelievable. It feels so well built and sturdy for the value you're getting. It lasts a pretty great deal and the recycling time of my speedlite flash is super fast. It makes shooting on location feel like being in the studio with the ability to fire rapidly with multiple frames per second. A great addition to your bag if you're the mobile on location photographer like myself!

Amazing Battery Pack Option

Works well.

Seems to be fine only used twice. Wish I had know when you ordering that the FlashPoint speed lights only take a Canon cable.

Better than most

Great Product  works seamlessly with the Nikon

Great Product

Nice pack

So far, I love this battery pack.  This unit holds 12 AA batteries to power your speedlites.  I personally use NiMH batteries because they can be re-charged many, many times.

Past experiences with battery operated devices, I prefer the AA battery option as opposed to one large NiMH or Li-ion cell because AA batteries will be around for the foreseeable future, whereas a single cell may not be available once the main battery fails.  I've been there one too many times and have learned to go the AA battery route.

This unit should last me a good long time and it recycles the flash almost instantaneously.  You won't be disappointed buying this unit.
