Cactus Wireless Flash Trigger System V4 vs. CTR-301P

Pretty cool Sean! That seems like a lot for a little spring-clip to handle. What's that, close to 4 lbs total? That's a lot of fire-power!!

I'm really not sure how much weight it is. Of course, if the clamp were positioned on a vertical support (like a door), I don't think it would have been able to hold all that weight up. But as shown, it worked in that orientation.

I wouldn't hold my breath on the time frame for the cube... I asked RP 2 weeks ahead of their supposed release of the PX system how that date was looking, as was told that they'd definitely be "on time"... and then something like 3 months later they were finally released. Similar with the JrX system.


Speaking of the JrX, i just got my transmitter and studio receiver in the mail (and my third PX Receiver) and will post impressions once I've used them.... first thing I noticed was that the JrX Receiver was WAY bigger than I expected... I had kinda been thinking about the size of my keyfob for my car alarm (similar design) but it's quite a bit bigger... the images on their site make it look like the receiver is just in front of the transmitter, but that's actually about their actual side-by-side size





*EDIT* And in other news, my Px Receiver didn't come with a battery cover. What the hell??? I've emailed RP and will see what they say... somehow I don't really see them sending me a 1 cent cover in the mail to Canada though :S
