NIKON SB-900 over heat problem - thermal cut out warning


















Just get frustrated with my NIKON SB-900 over heat problem. After about 50 shoot it's will auto shutdown and have to wait about 1-2 minute before it's can function as normal again.

I have email to NIKON Malaysia about this problem and they reply me

---------------------------> NIKON Email start <------------------- For your information, this is a thermal cut out warning. Usage of high mAh (for example 2500mAh and above) Ni-MH batteries may contribute to the quick rise of temperature. Therefore, try to use rechargeable Ni-MH batteries with 2000mAh (for example, Sanyo Eneloop, http://www.eneloop.info/products/batteries.html). The use of such batteries may slow down the temperature rise, which means you get to shoot more frames. We do not recommend you to turn off the termal Cut-out warning (under the Speedlight menu) as this may damage your speedlight if it goes overheated.
---------------------------> NIKON Email End<------------------- So from my opinion there is no way to totaly avoid this problem they only recommend to use rechargeable Ni-MH batteries with 2000mAh to slow down the temperature rise. I did ask if NIKON Malaysia take any step to repair the failured mechanisam on SB-900 or event exchange those having a shutdown problem in the future? and they reply

---------------------------> NIKON Email start <------------------- For your information, we had reported this to our regional office and is awaiting for more update on this issue. For the time being, you are recommended to let the speedlight to cool down in case the termal cut off beeps. ---------------------------> NIKON Email End <-------------------

Hope hear a good new soon from NIKON.

a luxurious bag to finish off a casual outfit. The design and totality louis vuitton bags seems to be plain, but the polished look of Monogram Multicolor plus the obvious fact that it is from Monogram Multicolore already makes it a luxury.
