This is my first post, but i have been reading this forum for a while (over 1 month). I find it extremly useful.

Now the Q: Is the trigger voltage 2 hi on this old flashgun for my 10D? I was reading some post about 2 weeks ago that says: Voltage over 6V may/will kill the cameras electronic.. it olso has a complete list of compatabile flashes (as for the voltage my old Nikon SB 24 is on that list with 4,5V)
I've been looking for that post over 10 days but.. still haven't found..
I'm sorry, this may be stupid Q, because someone already asked/someone already answered but please help...

According to http://www.botzilla.com/photo/strobeVolts.html it's not a good idea, the 45CT1 is listed there as 600V!

My camera would love 100x voltage overload ;)
Thank you T, you saved my 1500 euros camera from suffering serious damage.
