The Medium NiMh Battery, BMHM is the middle size so it's a popular option for the Nickel Metal Hydride battery cells.  Many people consider this Battery versus the Large NiCd because they are both rated to 300 flashes per charge.  It gets 50% more flashes than the NiCd Medium Battery.  

It's a good idea for photographers to have two or more batteries, so it's great to select at least one as a powerful Medium sized NiMh Battery, especially since these already have more flashes per charge than the same size NiCd and you can always swap it out if it gets low. It’s only $50 more than the Medium NiCd Battery but you get 100 more flashes per charge.  It's a great value as far as flashes per dollar.

If you use 200ws we guaranty 300 flashes per charge.  If you use 25ws, that same battery gives you 1800 flashes.  Likewise, if you use only 400ws, you should expect 150 or more flashes from this Medium sized Battery.

The NiMh Batteries all have a Four Year pro-rate warranty on the cells.  For the Medium Battery, that warranty loses value at the rate of: Full coverage in the first year, 25% in the second year, 50% by the third year and 75% for the fourth year and full price after that.  In some cases, there may be a sale price that is a better value than the total pro-rate at the end of the warranty.  There is a small labor fee to install the cells and new cells always start a new pro-rate warranty.  The case and electronics have a Two Year warranty from when it's originally purchased.

ASC1 Standard Household to PC Sync Cord

ASC1
The ASC1 is the short coiled sync cord that would plug from the round sync jack on many professional cameras to the household sync jack on many Lumedyne Flash Heads. It is about two feet long before stretching the coils out and could reach almost five feet (but might not shrink back all the way if stretched too far).

AFTE 800ws Flashtube for Modeling and Non-modeling Flash Heads

AFTE
AFTE Flashtubes fit all of the existing Lumedyne Flash Heads with or without the modeling light feature. They also fit in the new Extra Small Heads. They can be used at low power as well but should not be used above 800ws per Head as that is the upper rating of this flashtube's performance. The Flashtubes push/pull straight in/out and they will last for tens of thousands of flashes or one face down fall onto a hard surface. Any of the Heads can use this flashtube, however, the modeling lamp itself is separate and this flashtube does not convert a non-modeling Head to have that feature.

AMBR Modeling Bulb (Halogen)

AMBR
This is the normal replacement bulb for the glowing modeling light in the center of the Lumedyne Modeling style Flashtubes. It is about 25 watts bright and does use your battery at a rate of one 200ws flash per 20 seconds of modeling light use. It is user replaceable by simply first removing the flashtube then pulling the burned out bulb straight out. After carefully replacing the AMBR into its legs, the flashtube fits around it and plugs back into place.
