Used Interfit Photographic Honey Badger 320Ws Compact Flash Head, 5600K

Lightweight and portable but powerful at a fraction of the cost of other off-camera flash or strobes. The honey badger series is awesome. I picked this one up as an extra, mainly for the modeling light as the modeling light draws quite a bit of power and I don’t want to drain the batteries on my honey badger unleashed. I picked up extra batteries for my unleashed series but have yet to use them even after shooting for several hours.

Got one on sale and it didn't disappoint, bought another one when another sale happened. Tempted to get a third. Wish that it went lower than 4 but hey that's what modifies are for. The tilt mechanism needs some give to move and isn't smooth but once it's tightened it holds up (literally and figuratively).

Very affordable and easy to use. My only criticism is that I wish the power could be dialed down further than allowed. It would be nice to be able to use a single head as a fill, balanced with available light for interior portraits. Not a deal breaker by any means but something to consider if you purchase this kit.

I have ordered 3 of these units in total. First time I ordered two units without the stands. When I received them, on one ot them the glass dome was cracked so I had to send it back to be replaced. I just recently ordered another one. I set it up as the main light. Using a light meter to check the output, it fired once and would not recycle to fire again. the internal fan kept running. So now I was back down to a 2-light setup. When you get one that works they are fantastic but quality control seem to be lacking. I still would recommend this light. Just make sure you check it out when you receive.

Really satisfied with this especially since it was half the price of their competitors- plus had a few more features. Easy to use and well made. Perfect for product shots and small in studio use. Would highly recommend. Side note: one of the light domes came cracked from the manufacturer. Adorama's amazing customer service was able to send a replacement dome within two days. Absolutely amazing. super happy with this purchase.

So far so good... I needed a small set of lights for a permanent product photography setup at the studio. These are small, lightweight and the built in receiver on the heads with included remote for the camera make this such an easy setup. I probably won't push these lights as they have a set purpose for me, but they're great so far.

I chose this strobe to replace a house-brand that had failed to properly operate. My marketing agency has a small studio, mostly for portraits and headshots. The Honey Badger is powerful for its size and the controls are simple and straightforward. Pros: very fast recycle times, even light distribution, built in sensor (when you want to fire off a speedlight, or a sync cable fails) and broad control to adjust the output. Cons: no battery option, for on-location shooting (they tell me it is in the works), the softbox is smaller than I would have liked and have not seen a larger one (nor an octobox+eggcrate option) with this mount. This is a terrific, no BS light. it feels sturdy and thus far has met my expectation nicely.

I haven't written many reviews, but my experience so far with this kit has pushed me to write one. I've been doing more and more volunteer and other work with a local school (trying to gain experience while providing them with some services they've asked for). At a certain point, using multiple speedlights with a wireless trigger became cumbersome enough (would need to add at least 1 additional external battery, plus another possible light, etc.). I decided that I should look into some affordable but solid strobes that were easy to take along. I looked at PCB, and they had some great stuff, including a kit that had a battery, but the cost and using their own standard for the lighting attachment didn't work for me for what I'm doing. After looking a little more, I saw that the Honey Badger was recommended for those looking for something along the size of the DB800, but was a little less and used Bowens mount. I watched several videos about their use, and with an upcoming event, bit the bullet and ordered it. Got it in 2 days, and then started playing around with it. Wow! Easy to use, easy to set up the wireless trigger (multiple groups, multiple flash levels). The modeling lamps work great for seeing what's going to happen, and they work well with my Bowens mount modifiers. I'm extremely happy with this purchase! The only thing I'd have to knock it on is the sturdiness of the light stands. While they're fine for the included kit (assuming you don't raise them too high) I feel like you need something sturdier with a larger modifier (using a large octo).
