The studio adapter brings a new dimension to the Light Blaster work: Light output. Can't imagine working with hot shoe strobes anymore, with that little helper the Light Blaster is a proper Studio tool. The constuction is quite simple but very effective.

The Light Blaster Studio Adapter is something a lot of people have asked for. The system is simple and lets you use it on any mono block with a reflector. This is great if you want to pump more power out of the device because of bigger area you want to cover or using a slower lens on the front. Things to watch out for is how the system connects to the reflector. Make sure that it's attached properly and tight before attaching your lens to it. You don't want the lens to fall on the ground because it wasn't stable enough. While it is nice that you can use a modelling light to focus the system, be fast because the plastic will melt if not careful. Recommend you do that before putting the hood onto system, as not to build up too much heat. The adapter is a good way to reduce recycling times and get more light out of the system.

Has anyone tried using this with a continuous LED ...
Has anyone tried using this with a continuous LED light source? Spiffy Gear says this product is not meant to be used with continuous light sources, and I'm confused why that might be. I assume it has to do with the device being plastic and not being able to withstand heat, but LED technology has gotten much less hot since this was released..
This is mean to to focus the light. Due to the size of the source of light. LED vs the very small flash tubes, it will not work.

question
What power strobe does anyone recommend? Any particular models? Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, I just received my adapter with very high hopes. I used a Profoto 2400ws pack (Very Powerful) and at full power. I didn't get near the results that you get from a cheap speedlight. The speedlight is able to get right up against the slide. The adapter leaves the too much space from the strobe head and the output is extremely diminished. I recommend to skip the adaptor and just stick with the basic flash.
