The Poor mans Radio Popper....

I was thinking it was about time the Chinese boffins came up with a Cactus style TTL trigger.. well.. looks like they have!!

After looking through the strobist site i found what i was looking for.. they look a little cheap and im not too sure just how good they are, but they are reported to be good for 300m! TTL AND FP! (Fast Sync) id like to try them, but they arnt THAT cheap! but much cheaper than the alternative..

Has anyone on here had any experience with them?

The strobist article is Here

And bought on Fleabay Here

I just bought the Nikon version for £90, supposed to support cls so will let you know how I get on.

I'll also be interested to hear how you get on with them Toxic.

They did have a self-styled "European agent" but even he decided against importing them after doing some tests....

These were released last year i believe, there must be a good reason they haven't filtered down the line by now.. im sure if they were even 'Prettygood' they would have surfaced before now.. id still like to have a play with them..

Good luck Toxic, and please let us know your findings...

Ive seen them on Ebay being auctioned a few times lately, and typically go for about 90quid. I think a revised version is in the offing sometime soon.

I am reliably informed that they don't work on a Canon 5d.
