Neewer 300DI Specifications

I cribbed these straight from the Amazon listing for a single light (link at bottom).

Package Contents

Sync Cord & Power Cord


All fairly straightforward. I don't currently have a meter so we'll have to take all that on faith. I will say that the recycle period seems to be on par with what is listed here. I would also note that the modeling light stays off during the recycle period as well. That would only be a consideration if you were shooting in a completely darkened area, and then only for the brief second or two they are off.

     I don't think anyone in a smallish studio environment is going to be using these things at full power, They are BRIGHT. Let me say that again, BRIGHT, all caps. I've been using them in my living room (or as i like to call it, "the sometimes studio") and I have been using them on pretty much their lowest setting the whole time, and I have yet to need more than 1/3 power. (I would give that in meaningful numbers, but as you can see in the pictures, there is no scale printed on the back).
