Using C batteries in place of AA for Flash units

Dec 9, 2004

OK all of you electrical folks, I have a Canon 550 and 420 and a Quantum power pack. I need more battery life. Can I put 4 type C batteries together (6v) without damaging my equipment? Would the units recycle faster and go longer?

Thanks
