Sunpak 120J with Nikon F100 safe voltage?

Is it safe to use a sunpak 120J amd nikon F100 off of hotshoe or

pc port ? is the voltage safe or will it fry the camera circuitry? I

had a safe sync but it actually broke and wont transmit the signal

to trigger the flash and i have jobs coming up soon and cant wait

for the mail to get a new safe sync. is it safe? thanks. pls email

me at vidsolve@hawaii.rr.com i dont seem to get responses

automatically. thanks!!! john

I have used the 120J on a D100 with a Hotshoe to PC adapter. Everything is still working :)

Get a Wein Safe Synch to be sure.

thanks guys. I found out the voltage of the 120J is around 14 V by

putting my voltmetter into the place where the household prongs

plug into the body of the flash. is that accurate way to meassure

voltage of the flash?? I had heard on this site someone said the

f100 can handle around 25 V. But i dont know. I have been using

the wein safe sync but one day i pulled out the pc and it pulled

out the whole metal guts of the wein, and that days job i had no

flash and did not know it, even though it pulled out after i was

fiished shooting. that is a handy piece of hardware. i used it also

to have convenient location to plug in pc caable. go figure....john

I was under the impression that Nikon's upper limit for sync voltages on their higher end/pro level cameras is 250 volts. At least, I read this in a D100 manual.
