This 500W self-contained unit can achieve flash durations as short as 1/2900 of a second, and it's designed to seek the correct voltage to run on, no matter what electrical system it's connected to, so you can use it anywhere there's electricity. Or use it where there's no electricity, with the optional Bowens Travelpak battery. It's also designed to accept the optional Pulsar/PocketWizard Trigger card for remote control of the flash. The flash tube is easily user replaceable, which means no service center fees.
