FAQs

Can I use the Elinchrom THREE while it is charging?

Yes, the USB-C charging system allows for operation while connected to an appropriate power source, though battery charging may slow down.

Is the flash compatible with non-Elinchrom triggers?

The system features built-in Bridge technology, but for optimal performance and wireless control, use an Elinchrom-compatible trigger.

How many flashes can I expect at lower power settings?

The 525-flash count is for full-power (261 Ws). At lower power settings, you will significantly exceed this number.

Are the diffusion domes included in the box?

Yes, the dual kit includes two OCF diffusion domes.

What is the weight of one flash head?

The Elinchrom THREE is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it suitable for handheld boom use or tripod mounting.

Troubleshooting

Flash fails to fire

Check that the battery is fully seated and charged. Ensure your wireless trigger is set to the correct channel and group.

Slow recycle times

Verify that the battery power level is not critically low. Very high ambient temperatures can also slow recycling.

Touchscreen unresponsive

Perform a power cycle by turning the unit off and on. Ensure your hands are clean and dry when using the interface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, ensure the Li-Ion battery is fully charged via the provided 65W USB-C wall charger. Attach the desired diffusion dome to the front of the flash head, ensuring the bayonet lock is secure. To switch modifiers, utilize the included Profoto or Elinchrom adapters by aligning the mount points and rotating clockwise until they click. For care, always replace the protective cover or place the unit in the provided backpack when not in use to protect the exposed flashtube. Keep the touchscreen clean with a dry microfiber cloth and avoid exposing the unit to moisture or extreme dust.
