Flashpoint Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery Pack for XPLOR 600 PRO (AD600Pro) Flash (28.8V, 2600mAh) - Godox WB26

I've used this battery for at least a half-dozen shoots, and there's still two dots worth of power. The whole system is worth so much more than 2 On-camera strobes, and the batteries aren't even the best part.

I am a probably somewhere high on the seller ADORAMA's list of returning customers. 11 purchases since 2018. I purchased also from them Flashpoint XPLOR 600PRO TTL where these batteries are needed. Great light but the batteries stops charging one after one.This time I purchased two batteries, and I am using only the original charger. No updates, nothing got better... both just stopped working. Now, they have somehow managed to avoid the standard returning system that Amazon have, and the client pay for the shipping to their own warehouse. Ok, no biggie really, but I understand they dislike returns but I sent back both and got refunded for one only. As the return was for both, and not separate returns, they after a long discussion says only one was returned. Now, that the package weighed according to UPS between 3-4 lbs, I asked then how that is possible and if they can confirm if I added some additional weight to match two batteries (If it would have been one, the weight would have been registered as 1-2 lbs as the batteries weigh 1lbs and 4oz). They had no answer to that, only that their return department says it was one battery.I have no evidence of course.I didn't film myself packing it and sending it, but we do have the weight of the package and what else do they need?To sum it up: These batteries constantly breaks. If you buy the Flashpoint, consider the price for batteries too. Say, one per half year with very modest use.And if you will return to ADORAMA, make sure you have all the evidence.Take pictures.Get exact confirmation of the weight in written.Because you will probably need it.I understand it's irritating with batteries that are returned, because they are very very expensive. And it would be more understandable if also if any other big store would sell these, but I know of no one.Only Adorama.Such a shame.

I'm a professional photographer by trade, and I've owned/used Godox products for years, and generally I'm happy with them. For the price point, they're more than worth the occasional small issues I've had.But the Xplor 600PRO batteries are complete garbage.This purchase was a replacement for the original battery that came with the Flashpoint XPLOR 600Pro, which died due to not being used enough (how is that even a thing?), and now this replacement battery has stopped recharging too. I followed the instructions, charged the battery regularly, using it at least once every week or so, and yet here we are, just about three months after purchase, and this battery is completely useless.No weird storage, no extreme temperatures, no drops...just a terrible battery design.Only a 30 day warranty on the product, too? Anyone remember the days when companies stood behind their products instead of selling "extended" warranties? When companies designed their products to last more than three months?I'll be looking into alternative options for replacement. I wanted to love the XPLOR - when it worked, it worked great - but in the professional photography industry, a pattern of repeat dead batteries is a big warning sign that reads "Don't buy this product anymore!"

For the price of the item the battery should have a stronger capacity thus lasting longer than it does

Perfect

The media could not be loaded. Seemed great at first, quick cycle, held a charge. I didn’t use a ton, but regularly. It didn’t sit for months, and then one day it just stops charging… at all. Bricked. These lights are cheaper, but you’ll probably pay more than the price of them for batteries in a couple years at this rate. Can’t recommend! Bummer.

This is the second battery I have bought and they are not cheap. I have been using it on and off have been charging it as indicated it has completely stopped charging as the first one. I am very frustrated that the time to return is so short as these batteries are very expensive. I do not recommend this product.

I have 2 of these and they both failed at the same time just randomly stop charging, I got them brand new with the strobes, never dropped them and barely used them. These batteries are unreliable and they should be discounted and replaced with something more reliable. If you're going to replace them just get the wall adapter and ONLY buy these when necessary for a gig or job.
