Comments about Lumedyne 400WS Deluxe Control Booster Module:
To be added/stacked on a power pack like the great 67X (or the newer types) powered by dry battery packs (the fact that is running on dry battery packs makes a huge difference when you have to travel by plane as dry cells are accepted on board. Much more problematic if you are using lead acid batteries (as some competitors do) powered units as this often means check-in/security staff at airports will not be allow them on board on a plane since they can leak). This Booster brings power to 800Ws (potentially stackable all the way to 2400WS adding more 5 Boosters to a 400WS Power Pack!!!) onto a 400ws pack which even in this combination remains very small sizewise and therefore allowing great portability. This DeLuxe version though has added value when compared to the Basic 400WS Booster as it can be run on its own as a extra 400WS unit on its own but bear in mind you can only do this when powering it (with the proper mains adaptor) through MAINS and NOT on a battery pack.
This is great as you may be on location -somewhere yet where you can access mains therefore plug it ! - and decide that rather than boosting your Power Pack to 800WS you wish instead to have another head running from the mains at 400WS, say for fill-in...as said great versatility!
