On and off switch

Over all I like the lights but the on and off switch feel cheap when you slide it up and down for off.

The light exploded

The light exploded when I touched the test button, the back blew out and gave everyone in the room a heart attack. I really can not recommend this product.

question

Which beauty dish would be compatible with it?
Asked by: Anonymous
I would recommend either the Photogenic Quick Change Portrait Reflector, White - 24 , B&H # PHR24PLW, or the Photogenic PL22RW 22 Glamour Reflector With White Interior, B&H # PHR22PLW, for your needs. The Photogenic Quick Change Portrait Reflector - Aluminum Finish - 18 , B&H # PHR18PL, would also work as a silver reflector, but it is a special order item that is not in stock and has an estimated 7-14 business day arrival estimate.
