I bought this kit (Mobilight+battery) as a used one. It's powerful enough for most of my event shooting. Specially I like the AC+DC design for both indoor and out, day light temperature all the time & the supper light body of the battery (feel nothing at all on my shoulder).

Like the detachable light head, specially easy to replace at locations. The detachable light braket save a lot of space for carrying on road. The battary is so light in weight that I feel comfortabl to wear two with my waist belt.

I have 4 JTL 300 WS monolights in all. They work very well and can take a beating. These have fallen over at the beach, taken a few knocks but they work very well. The best value for money monolights on the market for sure. THE PROBLEM IS THESE NEW SMALLER VERSION BATTERY PACKS. They do not hold charge at all. Out of the last 6 I got 3 of them never even worked in the first place. The performance of the battery packs are very very poor. Be warned.

The light head it self works great for the money. It even works great on DC but the supplied battery pack worked good on the first shoot and has failed me on the last two I was on. I made sure I followed all the charging directions very carefully but still no luck. On my last shoot ( a team of 11 cheerleaders) I charged the pack the night before the AM shoot, I got to the site set up only to find my battery was mostly dead, luckily there was AC available. As a professional this can be disastrous for your reputation especially when large groups are involved. I can recommend the light head but avoid the standard battery pack (buy a good one separately). This manufacture has had battery problems in the past.

The JTL Mobilight is designed like the Versalight series for on-location and studio photographers, but the Mobilight series can vary its power source it can draw its power from either a battery or an electric outlet, so it is not bound by the physical limits of a wire or cord. The rechargeable JTL battery pack can support the Mobilight 201 for over 150 full power flashes, and the Mobilight 301 for over 120 full power flashes.
