Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Westcott FJ400 Strobe. The FJ400 and FJ-X2m Wireless Flash Trigger
(sold separately
) are a photographer’s dream combination. The performance of the FJ400 is one of the
industry’s first compact, portable 400 watt-second strobes that is capable of recycling in less than
one-second at full-power so you don’t miss the shot. It offers the most full-power flashes at 480 bursts to
extend those on-location shoots when AC power isn’t an option and it has accurate color temperatures
throughout its entire 9-stop output range. When paired with the FJ-X2m Wireless Radio trigger, you can
say, “Goodbye,” to the need for multiple brand-specific triggers. The FJ400 and FJ-X2m have you
covered with its multi-brand compatibility. This versatile unit offers everything required by professional
photographers today to achieve lighting success - including TTL, HSS, Continuous Capture, Freeze
Function, and so much more. Enjoy!

FJ400 Charging & Life Expectancy
The average charge time is 2.5 hours from complete discharge. The FJ400 Lithium-Polymer Battery
(14.8V 65Wh, 4400mAh) will achieve at least 300 complete charge cycles. Continued usage beyond the
expected charge cycles will result in diminished performance and the ability to hold a charge. Avoid
charging and using the battery outside of the stated operating temperatures (32~104°F / 0~40°C) as it will
affect the overall performance of the battery and strobe. Preserve the longevity of the battery by storing
at roughly ~40% capacity at room temperature in a dry environment and recharge to this capacity at least
every 3 months when not being used.
