Elinchrom EL-Skyport Universal Radio Slave Transmitter
The Elinchrom EL-Skyport Universal Radio Slave Transmitter is the transmitter for the EL-Skyport wireless radio slave system. The Transmitter controls basic functions of an Elinchrom RX unit to which a Receiver RX (#19353) is attached. To control all RX functions the USB Transceiver RX (#19354) and the latest EL Skyport software is required, which also offers additional features such as strobing effect.
The Transmitter synchronises remote flash units, when each is fitted with either the Universal (#19352) or the RX Receiver (#19353, fitting Style RX, Digital RX and Ranger RX units). The RX Transceiver also provides control over the power and modelling lamp of all Elinchrom RX flash units, directly from the Skyport Transmitter.
The EL-Skyport system has a studio operating range of 164' (50 m), and 394' (120 m) outdoors. Interference free operation is guaranteed with 40 bit security.

Comments about Elinchrom EL-Skyport Universal Radio Slave Transmitter:
Fantastic! An excellent alternative to more expensive offerings (assuming the functions are what you require). I shoot Architectural photography and this is great as it is compact and lightweight! For the price, it is near perfect.
Even comes with a backup battery AND battery "door" in case the original breaks.

Comments about Elinchrom EL-Skyport Universal Radio Slave Transmitter:
The Skyport system is a great accessory to my kit! They are light weight, don't get in the way and work every time. I also have one attached to my Seconic L558 to meter my lights. Not to mention I can control my RX Ranger packs with these little beauties. I nearly bought Pocket Wizards but I'm glad I chose the Skyports, they are half the price and with RX lights and the USB transmitter I can trigger and save my lighting set up data on my PC or laptop. You cant beat that.
