Recently i noticed that the need of a more portable and smooth studiolighting solution has grown stronger.
At the moment i have the Elinchrome BX400 studio kit, wich im very saticefied with offcourse, but the negative thing is that they are not compatible with any generators or batteries on the market.
Wich means that im depending on fixed powersources at every photosessions.
Offcourse you can draw looooong chords, but even that gets limited and it is not so smooth.
So i have been researching and looking on different solutions, and offcourse the money plays a main part in this aswell.

Im ready to put some into it, and im also planning to sell my BX400 strobes, so what i get from them will support the next buy.
The best solution that i found was from Dynalite. Its small, lightweight and has a good amount of components that i was wishing for.

The Two-Pack/Three-Head Location Kit. (Two batteries and three flashheads)
Perfect!
One as mainlight, second one as fill light and the third one as backlight or whatever.
But i had to slash that solution quite quick, as Dynalite first of all only sell their products in USA and Canada.

Also the chords does not fit into the sockets in Europe..etc etc..
Aswell i had a glance at the Alienbees.

I got a tip regarding Elinchrom.
They are releasing a new portable pack, salestart in March-April.
The Ranger Quanta Assymetric.
Looks really interesting.It has the same power as my BX400. 400W.

Its small and lightweight. The only sad thing is that you can only connect 2 flashheads into one battery.
Also its asymetric, wich means that you can not reglect the effect on one strobe only.
Both flashes has the same effect all the time.
The only solution to change effect is to place the strobes on different distances from the object.But that shouldnt be such a problem?
Two strobes works well and atleast you can bring them anywhere smoothly. Inside and outside any time!
Looking forward to some reviews of this package when they have started sell them.

Sälj inte! 2st blixtar är för lite, man behöver alltid den där tredje bilxten, eller fjärde ;)
