Does anyone (Sean?) have experience with these:

Seems to be exactly what I've been looking for (for a long time):

<div class="col-main"]
<div class="product-view"]

* 100m+ range</div>
<div class="product-view"]* powered by 2 x AAA batteries (Transmitter and Receiver)</div>
<div class="product-view"]* 1/250 sec sync speed</div>
<div class="product-view"]* can handle high voltage flashes (up to 300V) - this one is very important to me as I have an old flash which can reach up to 250V</div>
<div class="product-view"]* relatively cheap - 55EURO which is $75 (for both transmitter and receiver if I'm not wrong)
</div>

No experience whats-so-ever. I'd suggest combing through the strobist flickr group discussions.

It looks like you have to have a flash mounted on the transmitter to make it work. If that's the case, its only worth buying if you don't want to spend the money on a 580EXII for your master flash, an ST-E2, or if you need the 100m range. You may be able to fire flashes behind you though, without a direct line of sight which would would be helpful. Its certainly interesting.





Found a review of them. Seem pretty cool. You don't need to have a flash mounted on the transmitter which is nice.
