I then detached it, and I heard a loud crack. Upon checking, I noticed that the black stem connecting the pack to the strobe body is broken.
A couple of weeks ago I had the exactly same issue, I didn´t force it, just open it as usual, I have 3 Ikelite strobes, the oldest one for a couple of years now, so is not the first time I detach a battery. I think this may be an issue with newer ds-125 models, because I didn´t heard so much of this issue with older models, and I´d been reading a couple of this issues, all with newer models... Maybe Ike guys you are having this issues with some batch of strobes?
What really p..ss me off is that one week later my second and oldest ds-125 (maybe 2 or 3 years old top) stop working. Is not the camera, the housing or me, I guess is just d..mn bad luck for me...
I´m sending both parts to ikelite through my dealer, let´s see what they say...
