I know this subject has been debated before but I still can't decide. Both are good company. I would really like to buy the Profoto but their accessories are tooooo expensive and don't have enough blood to donate to afford them. ( like $300 for a 4 door barn door . I hope it is made of gold ;) ) Hensel is a little more affordable but I noticed that more people like Elinchrom. I just want to invest in a company and just stick with them. I just like the way both companie's monolight gets the exact flash output every single time so is there an advantage in one company over the other? . The elinchrom model which I am thinking about buying are the Style RX 1200 and the Hensels are the Integra Pro plus 1000 . I do have 3 Alien Bee 800 lights but at low power, the flash out put jumps alot. ( I have a sekonic 558L light meter to test this out )

I guess my main concern is support. Does any one have any issues with repairs? Are the customer services good like Alien Bee or do they don't care?
