Been looking at these flash systems for awhile now, thou havent heard or saw any images where the tog has used them.

Has anyone used these as undecided on another flash head, which means stuck indoors or another SB .

Mostly be used for fashion/portraites
 
You will gain absolutely nothing from looking at images produced by other people because all that the right (or wrong) equipment can do is to make the photography easier or more difficult, or in some cases either possible or impossible.

But if you want this kind of info, or any kind of detailed info, contact Michael Sewell, he has had the kit since about last September and uses it all the time for his wedding photography, and has just bought some more units.

By all means give me a ring at Lencarta, but I'm having to take a couple of days off with the flu right now
 
That's a useful link, if you ignore the claim that the seller actually developed the product:)
The Atom and the Wistra are the same thing, they are made by Godox. We waited until the 360 model, and the second generation of the 180, were available.
 
This is effectively the PM I sent to Alastair:

Corporate on location
Band Shoot on location
A behind the scenes video of the band shoot
Shot on Blackpool beach
And another

I think they're a brilliant system. I use the safari heavily in my work, and the Atom supplements the safari really well.
I also use the Atoms alone in places where a head and pack are too big. Before, it would be speedlights or Safari, depending on what I needed from the image. Now, I can have the output of a Safari with two Atoms, and the flexibility of speedlights regarding portability.
 
I take it the Atoms, don't have any sort of modelling lamp built in, i remember Garry briefly showing me one at the studio day, but i can't remember if they did or not.

No, that would add to the bulk and reduce battery life
 
And seeing as they are intended for the speedlight on steroids market, a modelling light isn't a high priority for the target client.
In all honesty, I've never used the modelling lights on the Safari Classic or Li-on. so the lack of a modelling light on the Atom didn't even register
