Blown SB600

[Iain MacIntosh]

Hi, anyone had to replace the flash tube in a SB600 after its blown ? If so, your experience, cost and where did you get it done.

Thanks
Iain

This Canadian article says it costs about 75% of the purchase price to get Nikon to fix.

He bought a flash tube only from them, and fixed it himself.

Instructions further down article.

Mine went back in January, sent it away for repair still waiting to get it back.
