- Join Jason Lanier for a video shot in the hot desert of California where he shows you how to SUPERCHARGE your FLASH with the Rotolight Neo 2 using the Dtap Connection. PLEASE THUMBS UP, SHARE, LEAVE A COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE!

In this video Jason uses his battery from the Rotolight Aeos on his Neo 2 to give it a real extra punch in the shots! The Neo 2 typically takes 6 (six) AA batteries to be powered remotely. But when you use the Dtap connection you can take the battery from the Aeos or the Anova Pro 2 and plug it into the Neo 2 making it significantly more powerful in flash mode than when you use just AA batteries.

I thought I skipped the advert, but the whole video is an advert.
advert for all the equipment.
Excellent presentation thank for sharing
Very nice presentation!
Note; there are also D-Tap distribution blocks and extension leads; so you can power 2, 3 or even 4 NEO2 with 1 battery; and with an extension lead, hang the battery lower on the lightstand.
Great to know that those quite pricy batteries can be used for other options,but with the great sales from Rotolight it’s a win win...thanks for helping us out Jason,and thanks for all of the behind the scenes information on the uses and proper handling...stay safe to you both!
The Jason discount on Rotolight equipment makes the otherwise expensive gear, way more affordable. I wish the D-Tap discount package also included an option to include the required cord at a discount too. Be sure to buy the cord if you are buying your first d-tap through the Jason discount. Thank you for the video.
Love the videos Jason!! I have been learning alot over the past year of getting into photography! I love your work!
Gee that was swell Jason and Emily. 📸👍 Great demo for the use of this light and photography at large. Hey Emily don't forget to DRIVE the 🛶 BOAT.
Nice job brother
Now that’s cool! Thanks for the tip!

I bought a neo 2 and that thing doesn't have enough power to pull itself out of a wet paper bag, just use a AD200, works so much better.
Thanks for another great video, i now have 3 Neo 2's and one Dtap battery as a lot of my shoots soon will be on out on location, yet to use them in anger but keep popping back to your videos for hits, tips and information.
PS well done on the 10000 steps a day
Thanks Jason. Just in time video. My Neo 2 is coming tomorrow and am excited about the possibilities with it.
Not for nothing. I have 3 of these Neo 2s that I got from Jason’s deal and man “best money I’ve ever spent” well aside from the AEOS that I got from Jason lol. Great job guys!!!
She is so beautiful! I learned a lot of things on many of your videos. Love them all
Love how you got the best of her skin color, it is like something special when i saw the final result,also you got the skin focused more than enviroment even if it is brighther
These neo 2 lights are gonna be perfect for my little struggle studio lol
Hope you and Miss Emily are doing well! All the best and take good care in these trying times!
Love it, so you use your car like you use your gear? Just don't flip the car! Love the video, just purchased the AOES and two DTAP batteries. I'll have to try this. Stay safe brother!
Like your video but got to ask what the heck is going on with your sound?
Great Video. Love my Neo 2 More then my Flash
Why not just use a AD200 and have more power and options?
inspiring as always.. greetings from Bali
Amazon carries the DTAP cable.
Great job as always. Thank you
Another great video, Jason. Have to try the NEO with the v-mount. 🤛
Would you pls inform me, Where Can I buy that D-tap Cable~? Thanks.
You can do this also of the AC power supply included with the NEO2. I have done this with both the AC supply and with the DTAP cord and a VMount battery. Finally if you don’t have a VMount battery that AC power supply can be powered by many of the different Li Ion Battery powered inverters or even a generator and an extension cord. So getting the most power out of the NEO2 can be done many ways.
The rotolight VMount battery is really expensive, will any VMount battery work just the same?
Just bought Neo 3, trying to determine, how the flash works, Elinchrom on the camera and how do these 2 connect? Thx
hello hello Jason hey man i am loving thenew NEO light just got it today and I love the power but since i saw this video do you know if it possible to 'super charge' the new NEO 3?
Thank you Jason. Would you please let me know your recommended a7R iii vs iv? And why?
A7r 4 is over kill for social media posting a7r3 is the sweet spot
@@jameshandley8252 I chose the A7iii instead of the Riii since it has better autofocus capability. Everything in the R series is overkill unless you are trying to crop a lot into landscape photography IMO.
Emily stunning as always. Emily has some wicked ink .
Thank you Jason! We have been using 3 Neo 2’s on a triple cold shoe mount for bright sunlit shade. Can you compare what we are doing with switching to a single D-tap setup.
Hello sir....what do you say about Lightroom presets?? What is your opinion
My dtap cable feeds directly into the AC charger. Is this a special dtap cable?
Adam yes it’s a different cable, for this you need the Dtap to 2.1mm DC power cable.
@@charliegreen1989 On Amazon.
If you already have the Aoes battery one would assume you have the light. Am I right in thinking that you have more power again. So this idea is really only for people who only have the neo 2 and can buy an extra battery. Is this thinking correct?
Why is the logo the wrong way round!?
If loving Emily is wrong I never wanna be right.
Hi Jason what colour temp was that Neo set at?
How much are those kits?
@@knowknewpeople8018 good results but an xplor 400 or better can produce those results too.
too much.
How's the power output comparing dtap battery to having neo2 plugged into an outlet?
It will be the same.
@@chinitopinoy1726 thanks for reply. Just wondering then, how's dtap compares to vegabond type of battery?
Joseph Krivoruk your welcome! I think it will be the same.
Looking to get my first Rotolight, I'll need to get some Aeos for Enviromental portraits but my immeidate need is for Real Estate 360 images. I was looking at the Anova Ultra Wide Eco Flood and then of course the Illuminator for diffusion, would you give me a thumbs up on this idea?
I find the power more than a little disappointing, far better off with strobes. Handy for catch-lights, but overall not the best solution at the price.
Eat more popcorn.
USB C 100 watt charger and battery 60 bucks, the Dtap is not a good price ! Old tech bad price ! Let's get cable from a Usb c to 15 volts into the Neo port ! show us that J !
That's a lame idea. People would try to charge their iPhones with it.
@@MarttiSuomivuori Dtap is old. These are led's I have Rotolight product. USB4 240W Power Delivery
A USB4 cable can supply up to 240 W of power, per the USB PD Revision 3.1 specification. The USB-IF announced that in late 2021 (upping max support from 100 W), so 240 W USB-C power delivery is limited. There are, however, some 240 W USB-C power meters available, as well as a cable from Club 3D. Note that a USB-C cable doesn't have to be USB4 to support 240 W power delivery; it can use an older generation of USB instead.
240 W power delivery is also an optional feature of USB-C cables, so to ensure you know what you're getting, you can look for the USB-IF's optional logo, which has 240 W and 60 W USB PD branding.
Read up and enjoy the price difference ! Dtap is like hanging a beer can on your light !
@@MarttiSuomivuori Dtap is old tech. USB4 requires USB Power Delivery (USB PD). A USB4 connection needs to negotiate a USB PD contract before being established. A USB4 source must at least provide 7.5 W (5 V, 1.5 A) per port. A USB4 sink must require less than 250 mA (default), 1.5 A, or 3 A @ 5 V of power (depending on USB-C resistor configuration) before USB PD negotiation. With USB PD, up to 240 W of power is possible with 'Extended power range' (5 A at 48 V). For 'Standard Power range' up to 100 W is possible (5 A at 20 V).
240 Watts !
