- Replacement for the defective original battery pack: Battery holder for 7 standard AA rechargeable batteries plus the included dummy – keeping your Metz flash handle in operation even though the frequently failing original packs are no longer available.
- Included dummy closes the circuit: It bridges the eighth slot in the holder – without the dummy, the adapter supplies no power, and it must never be placed in the charger.
- Short flash recycling times: approx. 12–15 s at full power and over 300 flashes per charge.
Safety instructions
- Important safety notice: Designed for 7x AA + dummy. The rechargeable batteries must be charged externally – NEVER charge them via the flash generator (risk of fire!).
- The included AA dummy is NOT a battery and must NOT be charged. It must still be inserted into the holder: it bridges the eighth slot and closes the circuit.

Description
If your Metz 76 MZ-5 or 70 MZ-5 is no longer delivering sufficient power, the old battery pack is usually to blame – and original replacements have long since become unavailable. This battery holder supplies power using seven rechargeable AA batteries, which you can purchase individually at any time.
The included AA dummy is essential: The holder is designed for 7 cells plus a dummy. The dummy is not a battery and must not be charged – it occupies the eighth slot and closes the circuit. Without it, the adapter supplies no power.
To install it, align the two triangular markings on the end cap and flash housing, then secure the holder with a push-and-twist motion. The holder has no charging electronics for the generator connection: Always charge the batteries in an external charger.

Ich habe hier genau das gefunden was ich gesucht habe: Einen Akku-Ersatz, mit dem ich ein sehr teures Bltzgerät, von dem ich kein verglichbares mehr auf dem Markt finde, weiterverwenden zu können. Ohne einen solchen Ersatz wäre das sonst einwandfrei funktionierende Blitzgerät nach dem Verschleis des Originalakkus wertlos. Besonders gut finde ich, dass handelsübliche AA-Zellen verwendet werden, die leicht auswechselbar und sicher noch lange im Handel erhältlich sind. Lediglich das einsetzen des Batteriekorbs gestaltet sich manchmal schwierig, da er sich beim festdrehen des Deckels leicht verschieben kann und dann der elektrische Kontakt verloren gehen kann. Hier würde ich empfehlen, eine Führung zu ergänzen, die den Battariekorb gegen seitliches Verkanten im Batteriegriff sichert. Mit einer solchen Führung würde ich auf jeden Fall 5 Sterne vergeben.
Besonders positiv hervorzuheben ist der hervoragende Service, als ich bei einer Anfrage eine unverzügliche Antwort erhielt und alles zu meiner vollen Zufriedenheit reguliert wurde.
Alles super! Den Blitz einfach mit Enelops bestücken zu können ist ein echter Gewinn. Der leicht fummelige Verschluss ist da nur ein kleiner Tradeoff.
Der AA Batterieadapter ist eine sehr gute Alternative zum nicht mehr lieferbaren Original Akku oder zur noch möglichen Akkuneubestückung mit Akkuzellen. Der Adapter ist solide ausgeführt und passt gut in den Blitz. Der Preis ist angemessen und fair.Die Kaufabwicklung war sehr gut der kostenlose Versand sehr schnell.

Thought I was going to throw out my metz mz-5 after battery died. The good folks at ausgeknipst saved the day and my flash. Ran into some questions on battery voltage and Valdi help me out.
Wish nothing but the best to the company and specially Valdi
Buona idea ma ..... Il primo tappo si è rotto subito a causa di un innesco gravato da spessori plastici troppo fini e misure imprecise per favorire fluidità nell’aggancio al Metz e il secondo che mi è stato mandato si è rotto quasi subito anche lui esattamente per lo stesso motivo malgrado le precauzioni prese dopo la prima esperienza. Dalle recensioni noto di non essere il solo a lamentare questo problema e considerato il costo del prodotto mi chiedo perché non vi preoccupate di risolverlo in modo adeguato. Potrebbe bastare un anello di metallo o materiale comunque più adatto a resistere per andare in misura e resistente alla manovra per l’'aggancio. Le due o tre volte che sono riuscito ad usarlo ho notato anche un gioco tra i contatti che rende intermittente il funzionamento. Ho provveduto all’aumento della curvatura della molla e sono riuscito ad ottenere dei miglioramenti. Forse sarebbe più efficace usare una normale molla a spirale. Concludo sconsigliando questo prodotto e lo faccio a malincuore perché l’idea mi sembra buona e di facile realizzazione tanto che ci vorrebbe poco a migliorare il prodotto già esistente. Scusate i giudizi negativi ma mi auguro di potervi far presto dei complimenti.
The product worked well, completely satisfied
