Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can you turn off the led mono light ? Or does it stay on as you turn the light on

A: There's a dedicated button for the led lights, so they can be turned off while the strobe is still functioning. But I don't understand what you mean by the light stays on. The LED lights are the actual lights, there are no other lights except the flash light which fires just like a normal flash does. Also the flash output has 2 intensities.Cheers!

Q: 2. What do the I & II markers mean?

A: The 'I' marker refers to the light being set at full power while the 'II' marker refers to the light being set at half power.

Q: 3. Does this fit on impact vsd300 monolights?

A: Unfortunately, this barndoor kit does not fit the VSD 300 monolights. A better option is the Interfit 4 Leaf Barndoor Set for Interfit Flash Heads - Includes Filter Holder B&H # INBD. Please see the image below.

Q: 4. What is part number of Grid for this kit?

A: My grid came with the Barn Door Kit. Like you have never been able to locate an additional or different size grid for this barn door attachment. Even searched Impact's website, no luck.

Q: 5. What's the power source?

A: Plugs right into the electrical outlet in the wall. 120 volt, 60 cycle AC. No batteries to run down or replace. Works great!

Q: 6. Can this be used with pocket wizards?

A: You may use the PocketWizard PlusX 2 Pack B&H # WIPWPX2P, which includes a miniphone to miniphone cable to connect to the SF-ABRL160. An image is shown below.

Q: 7. Why am I not seeing any light in my photos? I see the flash trigger, I see the light on my subject, but the photos are not lit at all. Is there something I am doing wrong? The only light difference is when I turn on the modeling lamp.

A: I would first check to see that the flash is working by pressing the TEST button on the flash and see if the strobe fires. If the strobe is working, I would then check to see if the strobe fires when you press the shutter button (ensuring your camera's PC sync connection and the sync cable are operating). If that works, then I would next recommend checking your exposure, ensuring you are shooting in Manual mode and setting your aperture and shutter independently. Ensure that the shutter speed is at or below your camera's maximum flash sync speed (check your camera's instruction manual or the Specifications tab on our website for your camera model - it was not listed above in your inquiry), and your flash is close enough to your subject. Using a handheld strobe meter to ensure your exposure is set correctly would be beneficial, as using a shutter speed that is too fast to capture the flash or an ISO setting that is too low to capture the flash based on its distance may cause the light not to be seen in the photos. If all of these are okay, I would then recommend contacting Impact Studio Lighting directly to inquire if they have any recommendations for your equipment, or if the equipment needs to be sent in for inspection or repair. You may contact Impact Studio Lighting either by calling them directly at (212) 594-2120 or by e-mailing them at info@impactstudiolighting.com with your inquiry.

Q: 8. What are the specs on the flash tube? I need a replacement.

A: You will need to contact their service Dept and set up a repair as the tube is not field replaceable. It was pretty inexpensive to get fixed, around $20 if I recall.

Q: 9. Im looking for a very simple solution for a strobe in a photo booth. Has anyone used this inside a photo booth and if so haw did it perform?

A: I have and I don't like it, it just burned up today. Looking for something better. The alian bee is good but it gets to hot.

Q: 10. Does anyone know the lifespan of this bulb?

A: On average flash tubes last around 10,000 shots, but the number can vary widely. TTL can also cause bulbs to wear out faster.
