I guess due to Covid precautions they kept the spectators pretty far from the players. Also due to camera restrictions they've put in place, I wasn't able to bring the big lens like I normally do. Hopefully they'll ease up on the ropes and I'll be able to get more pics tomorrow!

I typed "Dynalite XP discontinued" in Google, and found only one relevant result from a member of sportsshootter. However, that post was written last summer It's the weekend, so I can't call Dynalite right now, but has anyone heard anything different?
Also, I suspect that Dynalite may be redesigning the product around a Lithium-based battery to produce a lighter, more modern product, rather than continue with the heavy SLAs sealed-lead acid used in the current model. However, I like SLAs, because they're fairly robust, tolerant of charging variances, and are relatively cheap to replace unlike some Lithiums.
What lights or generators are you using Ralph? I would also suspect that Dynalite is going the Lithium route like everyone else. With luck their new inverter may be a hybrid like Elinchrom has done with the Quadra kit. According to them, the Lead based batteries are supposedly better for certain applications.
Based on that, I got the new Lithium battery, but kept a lead based one as back-up. Let us know when you get more info. Thanks for your reply, Marc. My main concern is powering my 1,Ws Speedotron Force 10 monolight. I was using a Vagabond Mini Lithium VML to power it which does work , but was worried about damaging the strobe since it is a microprocessor-controlled strobe. Plus, I should benefit from shorter recycle times with the XP Yes, I have some expensive Lithium systems that have gone bad Sony V-batteries which are a bit pricey to replace, so I think I'll be fine with SLAs for the moment, heavy as they are.
Will post back here when I contact Dynalite. SLA replacement batteries are a good value: I guess my main issue is that all batteries have a finite life, and SLAs and Ni-Cads are fairly inexpensive to replace. Both Turbos are perhaps 20 years old, and now they perform like new, and recycle just as if I'd just bought them. Newer, Li-ion Quantums are more far more expensive to replace.
Yeah, if it ain't broke why fix it? Those battery replacement are quite reasonable, so if you're okay with the weight and less flashes, why change? I got the new lithiums for my Quadra's because the whole point of the Quadra is Don't get me wrong, Marc. I was watching a video on feather gridded light on the slanted lens. The case looked like a cordura nylon case an fit had Godex emblazoned on the side.
No other details. I should add that a quick search produced several hits on the Godox LP which is fairly well known and reviewed. Perhaps not as easy to shop for though. Anyway, it's got to be some variant or a rebadged version. I would guess. I did send Dynalite an email to ask them. Thanks for posting that information, Wally! Sounds very interesting! Yes, the Godox LPs look quite nice.
In fact, they're probably the nicest-looking inverters on the market save for Broncolor, et. If Dynalite plans to co-brand or re-badge this product, it looks like a real winner. Sorta sorry I bought the XP, but at that price, I couldn't resist.
Definitely let us know what you find out from Dynalite! What I don't understand is that the Godox LP is rated at W, but they claim it can support up to 3, Watt-seconds of strobes. I know Watts don't equal Watt-seconds, but why is it that Dynalite only claims you can power strobes up to 1,Ws with their 1,Watt rated XP?
Thanks for the correction. Yes, I've read that thread many times , but I just happened to notice that the Godox site claims to be able to power 3, Watt-seconds worth of strobes. How can they claim that? Also, it is constructed for flash of ws to flash times in full power, and for electrical devices with max. It drives a W halogen lamp for up to 60 minutes. Source: Godox Photo Equipment Co. Ralph, what Godex really are saying is that their inverter can handle a peak effect of W for two seconds.
If you for example would take a Profoto 8 pack, Ws, that recharges in 0. So a Ws Profoto 8 pack would overload the inverters peak spec. I think all inverters can handle a higher peak effect for a short while. Problem is that most photographic equipment doesn't say how much or for how long and under what operating conditions - Alaska or Arizona? If the Dynalite XP have the same relative amount of peak power in comparison to their rated power it should be able to handle W for two seconds.
In marketing speak that's "up to Ws equipment with recycle time of 2s" or why not "up to Ws equipment with recycle time of 4s" Real inverters that you can buy for different purposes like backup power, RV use and what not, usually have real data sheets with specifications. Given what a real pure sinewave inverter costs without batteries it seems that some of the newer inverters for photography are of very low quality internally and are likely run over their specified capacity internally.
Thanks for explaining that, Pete! I've read that the XP will power certain Ws packs, but not others. So I guess Ws packs are probably out of the question. I just received my XP last night, and I've just finished charging up all the batteries. I suspect all three are several years old. One is a non-Dynalite branded battery, dated ; the other two Dynalite-branded batteries didn't have dates however, they all seemed to charge "normally".
Gonna test them right now. If they're sub-par, I plan to buy three new batteries. I would guess Batteries Plus stocks them I assume they're motorcycle batteries? They are sealed lead acid batteries, SLAs. They come in several sizes and are used in many applications.
But even with the same dimension they are different inside for different applications. A typical motorcycle battery is not what you want. You want a deep cycle battery.
