timarmes Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Not yet. I've just ordered what I <i>think</i> is a Minimagick from ebay: <p> <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Brand-New-Radio-Wireless-Trigger-for-Studio-Flash-Unit_W0QQitemZ7567606814QQcategoryZ3860QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem">http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Brand-New-Radio-Wireless-Trigger-for-Studio-Flash-Unit_W0QQitemZ7567606814QQcategoryZ3860QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a> <p> It certainly looks identical, although the actual make isn't mentioned. For 20UKP including delivery, I figurered that I couldn't go too far wrong. <p> Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmf Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 These are the single channel YinYan units that have a fairly poor rep. The 4 channel units are better, but still have minimum distance issues (about 5 ft). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmf Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 should of been specific. the ebay listing looks like like the YinYan units. The txrx02 receiver looks suspiciously like my YinYan 4 chan unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbc Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I was just going to ask if anyone had used them. I want to buy the proper versions, that can be found here http://www.studioflash.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=TXRX02 They have two channels and the distance is up to ten metres (although I'd expect that to be somewhat reduced outdoors where there are no walls for the signal to bounce off) I remember thinking about buying the Bowens Pulsar slave triggers, but reading lots of bad comments about them - apparently they don't fire every time. I wonder if people have had the same problems with these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
