Elinchrom RQ A Flash Head
Shown with Optional Equipment

It may look like a miniature, but the Ranger Quadra A Head from Elinchrom is a grown-up flash head made to match the Quadra battery pack. Together, they'll give you 400 w/s of light, miles from the closest electrical outlet. And, with this special A speed head, you can freeze action at 1/6000 of a second.  Coming in at under 1 1/2 lbs (including an 8' cable), the Quadra A Head has a very efficient LED modeling light, producing the equivalent of 40 watts with only a 20-watt bulb. It can take EL umbrellas up to 3.4' diameter, as well as Elinchrom reflectors and other light modifiers. Small is beautiful.

Comments about Elinchrom RQ A Flash Head:

I was a bit skeptical at first with the Quadra's due to the small size and the expense for their adaptors. However after using a single head for about 2 months I decided to purchase the second head. It is well worth the money, the B socket is about 1/3 the output of the main head however it's not that important. There is plenty of power out of this unit and the light is consistent. I primarily use if for weddings when we have to overpower the sun or increase the F stop. The unit is consistant with a long battery life and very nice.

My only negative comment is that I wish the unit wasn't made out of plastic and felt so cheap. But it may have been done that way to minimize weight and cost. Everything else about the unit is amazing. Highly recommended.
