| Need to borrow a manual strobe please :) I just need a strobe with manual power control (like a Vivitar 285HV, Canon 430EX, etc) - it'll be attached to one of my hot shoe adapters for use with my Cactus V2 triggers. Thanks in advance.

| Re: Need to borrow a manual strobe please :) Jace, I still have those two vivitar 283 units sitting at my house. I never put them up on Ebay. They are the older models, but IIRC you said you had no problem getting them to fire with the Cactus triggers. My triggers won't fire them so they are paper weights to me. I even have a variable power control for one of them. Just give me a call.

Thanks Nick! I appreciate it. I will be selling my Cactus V2s triggers soon. I have 1 transmitter and 3 receivers. I'm gonna upgrade to Cybersyncs.
