Notes on Battery Cassette Usage
The pack cannot be used without a Battery Cassette or the Extender Battery Fitted.
The pack can still be used while charging the Battery Cassette or Extender Battery 
providing there is sufficient charge remaining.
Use only Bowens approved charger's or permanent damage may result.
The Battery Cassette can be charged either within or outside the pack from the mains using
the supplied charger or alternatively from a vehicle using the optional Automobile (car) 
charger.
• 
The battery has no memory effect so it can be charged and discharged from any state. 
However, for best results and service life never fully discharged the battery, charge it as 
soon as possible after use and keep it fully charged.
Extra Battery Cassettes and charger's are available as accessories allowing quick 
replacement of an exhausted Cassette with a fully charged Cassette to allow continuous 
shooting.
