Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. This unit runs on a battery. My question is, if the battery fails in the middle of a shoot, is the voltage protection disabled or will it allow high voltage from an older flash power pack to go to the camera?

A: Don't know. It doesn't work at all on my Olympus or Nikon cameras. Total waste of money for me.

Q: 2. What is the warranty on this product?

A: The Vello HSA-PVU Hot Shoe Adapter with Safe Voltage Conversion includes a limited 1-year manufacture warranty.

Q: 3. Two products that I have recently purchased from BH, first, Wein SSH Safe-sync, second, Vello HSA_PVU Hot Shoe Adapter, have both failed to fire the flash which is a Norman studio power pack connected via PC sync cord. I am connecting to a Nikon D3300 via the hot shoe on the camera. The camera hot shoe works to fire a portable flash connected directly, so I don't think there is a problem with the camera's hot shoe or maybe this camera cannot handle external flash connections? Nikon says that it can. What to do? Would a radio powered transmitter/transceiver work? Is this a camera problem? Thanks.

A: Unfortunately, we do not have enough information to assist you via this forum. The best I can state is if the camera's hot shoe is working properly, I would recommend trying the adapters with a different flash to see if the adapters fire with a different flash. If so, the issue may be the sync terminal of your power pack or the PC sync cable you are using. At this point, you have only eliminated the hot shoe as properly working, but have not identified if the adapter, sync cable, or sync terminal on your pack is the issue. All other variables have to be eliminated to find the issue. The above test would verify if the adapters are working. Switching a PC cable with a known working flash would indicate if the PC sync cable you are using is working. If the adapters and PC cables are all working with other items, then the issue may be the sync terminal on your power pack, which would need to be sent to Norman or a repair center for inspection/repair. If it is your sync terminal, then purchasing a wireless radio remote system would not work as they still utilize the power pack's sync terminal to connect the radio receiver/transceiver to the power pack. I would recommend to use the items you currently have to confirm or eliminate the issue. As you state the hot shoe on the camera is working, it does not seem to be a camera issue.

Q: 4. I have a digital Leica CL and a Contax G flash. Will this adapter work properly , fire the flash and protect my camera's circuitry?

A: Yes, the Vello HSA-PVU Hot Shoe Adapter with Safe Voltage Conversion will protect the Leica CL when using older flashes that had a higher voltage from the Shoe. And the flash should work in manual on the camera.

Q: 5. Will this hot shoe adapter work on a Vivitar 283 on any camera?

A: Yes, it is compatible with the 283 flash on a hot shoe camera.

Q: 6. Can I use my Nikon SB800 on my Olympus mod e-5 with this converter

A: Yes, you can use a SB-800 on an Olympus E-M5. The flash will only work in manual. It does not support TTL on the Olympus.

Q: 7. I have a Vivitar 283 strobe, which I realize can be fired on my Nikon D700 using this Hot shoe adapter. Can my TTL quenching work with this system in the same way it does with Nikon strobes?

A: No, the 283 should be shot in manual, E-TTL will not work with this strobe.

Q: 8. What is the maximum wattage if converting from 110v to 220v? (I am in North America with an EU product).

A: The specs says the maximum wattage for the Sevenstar AR-5000 Automatic Voltage Regulator is 5000 W

Q: 9. I have an OLYMPUS T 10 Ring flash with an OLYMPUS T Power Control from my Film SLR days (OLYMPUS OM2 Camera). Would the Vello HSA-PVU Hot Shoe adapter with safe voltage conversion allow me to use this ring flash on my Nikon D800, D750 & D7000 DSLR Cameras without risk to the camera electronics? I realise that this would probably only work in Manual and not TTL metering modes

A: That flash is on the older side and it might be a bit safer to use a safe voltage hotshoe adapter that is rated for more like the Wein Safe-Sync.

Q: 10. Can I put this on a Fuji XT-2 and partner it with a Canon 600EX-RT?

A: You won't need a voltage converter for this flash. That is typically used for much older flashes and strobes from the film era.
