Great flash at a great price.

Powerful and versatile. I used to be in love with her. High-speed sync is a godsend, especially at this price point. Battery life has been excellent so far. The only thing that bothers me is how often it goes to sleep and there is no option to set that timer. With heavy use, it can happen that the light bulb heats up quickly and only lights up after it has cooled down significantly. All this to say that it is definitely worth buying, especially at this price.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Large and bulky

Great flash light

I like this light it's pretty much an all in one for small productions. Ideal for main light as well as fill and backlight. I like the fact that I can use a lithium battery instead of AA. The flash seems to last forever, event shots turned out just great, I don't have a lot of battery with me. The performance and light quality of this flash is second to none. An ideal compliment for any professional photographer, the only thing that could improve it is the presence of a modeling light.

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Pretty ok

fast and powerful rechargeable flash

I've been using this flash for over a year now. It works flawlessly in all scenarios. I have now replaced all my branded flashes with Godox products and have no regrets. The lithium-ion battery lasts for the duration of an event or wedding. It also works great in a softbox in the studio. The recharge time is better than my previous AA flashes. And no more fiddling with all those batteries! I have read that people have problems with plastic shoes but I have several and they are all in perfect…

Pros
  • hands-free operation
Cons
  • boring packaging

Great flash - terrible life

I have bought several Godox flashes in the past. 2x TT860II (Li-Ion), TT685s, (AA), TT80 (Li-Ion). The flash itself works great. First and foremost, lithium-ion batteries are great. The charging time is fantastic and they last all day. BUT after about a year the cells inside the battery case start to swell. After that, you CANNOT insert or remove batteries in the flash's battery compartment. It also comes from the VB-18 (upgraded battery) that I bought later. I can't be the only one, what…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Some problems

The hot shoe is plastic and will break. Update: broken

First of all this flash is a great price compared to well known brands. But don't expect it to last 5 or 10 years or more unless you handle it very carefully. The hot shoe leg is plastic and will break. I have a light shoe adapter stand, these were the ones that attach the shoes on either side. (Another rant the other day about these adapters being the standard when they shouldn't be) I could tell right off the bat that tightening it any further would cause the pad to bend and break. but you…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Great fast light!

I can't discharge the battery! It seems like it's going to last forever. The affordable lithium-ion battery that comes with this flash is way better than AA batteries. It was my way to events. I shoot full time so it's important to me that my gear works and doesn't let me down. This flashlight is very reliable. Sometimes when I take too many shots too fast I have to wait for it to cool down. There isn't a big one. I have 2! I can also adjust this by increasing the ISO and reducing the flash…

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
