Has anyone tried this with the cheaper Neewer strobes?

The cheaper strobes are often very light in weight so be aware of balance with the softbox attachef. This works great for me, I've had no issues with the ring.

I haven't compared to those but I use a streamlight led ds. The terralux is much brighter and I like the fact it had a separate switch for strobe

As long as it fits the softbox and the slave can "see" the other strobe or strobe, it should work. I use it as a background light, which is probably a better option.

You can but, honestly, it's one of those get what you pay for products. The strobe can't be adjusted in regards to power, you have to use the warm filter just tiger a balanced color, as it is as warm as spilling light blue pair on your subject. Would NOT recommend.

Yes it works with most, no its not recommended to do by Pocket Wizard. Besides, who wants loooong wires from one flash head to the other anyways? Or better yet, who places 2 flashes so close that they are within 1-2 feet of each other? Not the best of lighting setups.

No it won't work. Frankly...stay away from Neewer products especially their flash system and batteries.

Neither - no strobe function that I can find. Strobe isn't indicated in the product description either. EDIT - Sorry - The strobe is very fast. I didn't receive an instruction sheet with mine and I just stumbled on how to select the low intensity and the strobe functions the other night.

Hello!.... Technically, none. There's no difference between those two kits. Except for the color of the strobes. Regards.

All kinds. I use a Newwer 250 watts a second and a Newwer 180 watts a second sized strobes and the 180 w/s strobe is quite smaller than the 250 w/s strobe and it fits both just fine. There are Velcro straps to adjust it.

This is a great kit - I've tried other more expensive triggers and they didn't work. Vello is dependable and easy to use. I've been using them with my Nikon DSLRs and Speedlight SB800 with umbrella, softbox, etc. Also compatible with other speedlights. Good luck.

I have both the 580EX and the 430EX II and They both work fine. I've been using them for portraits of grand kids and using everything in manual with a hand held light meter to set power. Kind of a pain setting the power on the flashes because you have to get inside the umbrella to do it. If I was a pro I Wouldn't do it that way because of the time it take but hey, I'm retired so I have lots of time!

They didn't work for me either. But that's ok. I'm using a ProMaster brand flash. Oddly, they did work perfectly with Nikon flashes that belong to friends. So, I sent the Cowboy Studio version back and ordered two more of different brands. The Trigmaster and Yongnuo. The TrigMaster didn't work either, but the Yongnuo DID. So I kept that set. I'm happy. It was a headache buying so many knowing I'd have to return them, but Amazon makes it so easy to return that I couldn't afford not to. You can troubleshoot until you turn blue, but either they work or they don't and you'll know instantly. With my setup, Yongnuo was the answer. They didn't work for me either. But that's ok.

I only have experience using this remote with ADJ Profile Panel RGBs which will cycle through presets, blackout, and change strobe intensity. I can only assume it will work in a similar way if not exactly the same.

I have the older generation model of this and it does not have strobe. Not sure if UTG is producing the next generations of this light with strobe but I know that some of them are starting to incorporate that feature.

I haven't tried it myself, but I don't think there would be a better combo for this purpose. I mean a 100mm macro with this specific of flash, Yongnuo or not.

Alien Bees B400, B800 or B1600. The higher the number, the more powerful the light. I use 800s in my small home studio but would have been fine with the 400s. However, the 800s will transfer nicely to a bigger studio in the future :)They are some of the best strobes and so soo sooo easy to use!

Yes you can, this is how I use it in my studio. The brightness will depend on your Strobe, the softbox does not come with a Flash/Strobe/Light. Hope this helps. Jason.
