Cactus alternative?

[Sam-D]

Like several others at the moment, I am interested in a cheap wireless flash system and I’ve been following the current Cactus V2 posts with interest. I have just found another system from Fotosupplies made by Pro Line at just £25.

Does anyone have any knowledge of this device?
Could it possibly be a good alternative to the Cactus?

Reading the product description, it sounds like its another clone of the 16-Channel ebay triggers which belongs to the same family as the cactus ones.

I have these that I use with my Bowens and I am really happy with it, never had a misfire or a miss yet. They have been unavailable for a while so now they are back I am tempted to get a spare set. They do not have the assorted settings to use different lighting groups but as I have never needed that it is not worried me.

I have bought various items from Fotosupplies and their service has always been first class.

If anyone knows of a way to get this trigger to work with my Canon Speedlite I would be grateful.

You will be frustrated until you'll finish with Elinchrom Skyport, Pocket Wizard or something similar anyway. Any other solutions are temporary. Unfortunately. :/ I've been going through that.
