I was wondering if anybody is running the same problem. I work as a PSD Diver and we have Canon 20D camera and Ikelite housing. We have one DS-125 Ikelite substrobe. Everything is rarely used and taken well care off.
But because this equipment is always on "standby" and we might be called out anytime its crucial that this equipment is always ready for use.
Everything is working great but the DS-125 is holding the battery charge very very poorly. Within a month its running almost completely dry. And is unusable so we have to charge it at least once a month just to keep the charge in "working" condition.
We have also tried to keep the strobe and the battery separated but it seems not to matter. The battery doesn't keep the charge long enough.
Is the battery not better than that, or is this "normal".
It would be great to hear from you..
Thanks
