after photo shoot with 2 models Eliza and Isabella indoor using flash.. im really disappointed how fl-36 performed on its recycle time.. give me idea how can i modify my flash since i dont have money for another upgrade.. i add 2 more batteries with parallel connection with the existing batteries.. after simple modification. it shows some improvement cutting 2 secs in recycle time in full flash but in fill in the recycle time is just 2 secs.. before i tried it to my e-510 i tested it first on my e-300 (RIP) to be sure... but this is just me

check the actual recycle time on my video http://bridgebolt.multiply.com/video/item/38/olympus_FL-36_flash_on_steroids
