I have the vagabond II, so no specific advice on the mini, but one thing nice about the II vs the mini is the ability to use the pack as a weight for the light stand...

so when shooting outdoors, you might want to find an assistant, or get some sort of weight, although from what I can tell, the mini is small enough to use it as a light stick attachment.

Nevermind -- I'll take care of it myself!

Advice? - the charger gets really hot when charging. Use caution.

Other than that, it is an awesome battery pack form what I have seen in my limited time using mine.
