Bob .......... is the 402 one of the so called stick handled potato
masher type flash guns? I have a 60CT4 and was advised to get "dryfit"
lead acid batteries ....... more charge, last longer, more flashes per
charge. Whether that advice was right I don't know for sure but the
batteries do last a long time. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than I
can comment.
