Well send one to try our out 😉
 
Yes we do use the Firehouse strobe light for the Mavic 3 on the Mini 3 Pro and Use the wet suit compression band similar to this , notice the Band covers the one light on the strobe but were ok with that as its simple , secure and easy to switch where we need the light to go on the Mini 3 Pro . ,

The Wet Suit protect the Props and can lock them in on both the top and bottom of the drone , its very quick and its a prop holder built in on both the top an bottom.

Trying to keep up with the Classic Mavic 3 , the Mini 3 Pro holds true in the Rain and wind but !! at night there is a clear winner .

The Mini 3 Pro turns the lighting off when recording at night and I forgot to charge the Aux Light , thus the Mini 3 was grounded do to recording blind over the Night Lake.

Less than 30 Ft away its going to completely be out of visual as it records so I will be flying blind with the lights of the car as its much darker than it looks on camera.

Quick question. The usb-c and sd ports on the back... so you have to peal the wetsuit off every time you want to access those ports?

No , each battery has its own Separate Battery Cover and Power Button Seal, you can decide if you want to cover 1 Battery or all 3 , Than each time you put the battery in you seal it air tight . and when I am in a hurry I just use the Compression band over the top of the Seal as well for with the light strapped on. Works really nice and its a quick,

The Compression Band that comes with the Wet Suit works perfectly to secure the Firehouse light on the Mini 3 :

The Compression Bands sits down the middle of the Light leaving 4 Lights open. Much more secure than the Velcro tabs.
