Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Have had several other flash units, including Lumedyne and White Lightning; expected this to be creme de la creme but to me it looks cheaply made for the money. The rubber edging around the power pack and the battery keeps popping off. The cap on the A head connector on the battery pack has already been chewed up since the carabiner attached to the loop and strap has ground it almost off. The diffuser is difficult to remove and looks like it will break eventually. The wireless trigger buttons are difficult to set, and sometimes the modeling light (holding down the power up button 3 seconds) just doesn't want to kick off the modeling light and I find myself pressing with great care repeatedly to get the thing to work.
I invested heavily already with extra head cables (16 foot and 5' for shoulder rig) so I'll keep testing this, but frankly I wish Paul Buff had his battery packs in stock; I would have bought his Einstein setup and power packs instead and gotten more bang for the buck with a good service. Now I'm not sure if I made the right choice, and what I'm going to send my stuff to Switzerland for repairs?
Other users; I am wondering if you still feel the same way now after your positive reviews...cuz I can't imagine you are seeing the same things I'm seeing.
