Well I'm not buying but have just bought a Godox 360 flash with a beauty dish come octabox soft box it has a separate battery pack it's to replace a Metz flash that had a separate battery pack but the battery failed and unless you use them all the time they just die, I suppose it's old tech by today's standard.
The other thing I've treated myself to is a Triggertrap which joins your phone to your camera/flash so you can photograph balloons bursting or do Timelapse , it's just taking some time to get setup I keep getting bits of rubber flying out of the image .

I've looked at the trigger traps and keep toying with the idea. I've also considered switching to the Godox flashes so I wouldn't need quite so many rechargeables for the speedlights.
