I was testing my newly bought Vagabond II today and I only have 1 strobe connected to it only at 1/4 power, giving about 150w
I tested it with one strobe and it worked fine, so I hooked up my camera and took a photo and it worked, but after that, the VB just completly died.
No led lights or anything was lit up.

I did charge the battery two days ago for at least 8 hours

Right now its plugged into the wall but the led light is still not on
The green led slightly flickers every 5 seconds but so faint that its hard to see

any help?
p.s, one of the clips on the back of the case came broken

Double check the fuses and battery cables, making sure they are tight.

Thanks for the quick reply,
I have checked both the connections on the inverter and also battery
Its been plugged into the wall charging for about two hours and no change with the leds.
The battery doesn't turn on at all

In that case, you should probably contact customer service to arrange for an exchange.
