The Q-36X is not really a flash, because by itself it will not function. It is a "lamphead" that is best described as a flashtube with an extension cord. It would be a nice accessory for your Qflash X or X2, if you want to mount a flashtube in a softbox and get Automatic exposure via the flash which is situated at the other end of the cord, well away from the softbox you are using it with. (This setup would not be possible previously) The Q-36X features a very small mounting plate around it, with a 1/4-20" threaded hole for easy mounting. The other end of the 8 foot cord looks similar to the plug end of your flashtube. After plugging it into your Qflash X, you are ready to shoot.
Remote Qflash Heads can be mounted to other Quantum mounting accessories such as QF72 Multi Bracket and QF73 L Bar. With the Remote Qflash Heads, photographers can shoot in all Qflash modes - automatic, TTL, manual, and Strobo. All Qflash accessories are compatible, giving a new dimension to light control with the Qflash system.
