The Metz 45 stick flashes are powerful and affordable, and they all have one problem: if the original battery holder hasn't broken yet, it will soon.
Two versions are offered:
- Operation with 6x rechargeable 1.2 V Ni-Cd or Ni-Mh batteries from Eneloop, EBL & Co. (7.2 V)
- Operation with 6x 1.5 V Li-Ion batteries or alkaline batteries (9 V operating voltage)
With our newly developed battery holder, we fight the fragility of conventional 45-39 battery holders! This holder is simply inserted into the battery compartment and ensures a stable fit through clamping.
Advantages that speak for our battery holder:
- Easy handling: The lower part of the holder can be easily unscrewed to quickly replace the 6 x AA batteries (not included). This way, you always have enough power for your photo sessions!
- Long flash duration: Use high-quality Ni-Mh batteries (e.g., EBL 2800 mAh) and experience 350+ flashes at medium power.
- Flexible energy use: There are two variants available: Ni-Mh or alkaline

Why are there two versions of the adapter?
The flash has two different contact pairs, each connected to separate circuits that provide the voltage required to charge the capacitor. For the circuit designed for 9 V (alkaline batteries), the cutoff voltage is 7 V. This means the flash stops working when the voltage drops to 7 V. If you use NiMh batteries in the alkaline battery holder, they have a much shorter runtime and won't fully discharge because they start at 7.2 V instead of 9 V.
On the other hand, if alkaline batteries are used in the NiMh battery holder, they deliver too high a voltage, which causes the circuits to heat up, potentially reducing the flash unit's usage time.
Note on the old version of the adapter, sold before February 2025:
All battery holders sold before February 2025 correspond to the new "Alkaline" variant. This means all previously sold flashes can be used with both Ni-Mh batteries and alkaline batteries, although the performance with Ni-Mh batteries in the old variant is not optimal (see above).

Der Batteriekorb passt perfekt an meinen alten Metz 45 CT5 und ist deutlich robuster gebaut als das Originalteil. Für den Preis eine super Lösung und eine klare Verbesserung zum bruchempfindlichen Original.
Der Batteriekorb passt perfekt und ist sehr hochwertig. Großes Lob an ausgeknipst dafür! Somit kann ich meinen Blitz endlich wieder benutzen.
Ich habe den Korb für die 7,2-Volt-Variante (Akkus) gekauft.
Was mich nur etwas stört, ist die Tatsache, dass der angebaute Korb den Blitz verlängert. Aber ohne das Ersatzteil könnte ich den Blitz leider nicht mehr verwenden.
Ausgepackt, Akkus rein, eingesteckt - funktioniert einwandfrei !Als Ersatz empfehlenswert.
An meinem betagten (aber noch voll funktionsfähigen) Metz 45 CT5 Blitzgerät sind am Batteriekorb die empfindlichen Verschlussschieber abgebrochen. Das Originalersatzteil, wenn überhaupt noch erhältlich dann nur für sehr teures Geld, hätte wieder diesen sehr bruchempfindlichen Verschluss. Deshalb habe ich mich für den hier angebotenen Ersatzbatteriekorb, der deutlich stabiler aufgebaut und noch dazu wesentlich günstiger ist, entschieden. Er steht zwar am Handgriff unten über, das stört aber weder bei der mobilen Handhabung noch bei der Festinstallation am Stativ.Fazit: Eine sehr gute Entscheidung.
