Owned it 2 weeks and dumped it. I did see the YT video and didn't know it was pulled. It's not just the build quality, it's color shifting, and PCB's definition of Watt Seconds. Those last two made a huge impact on me. I'm currently at Elinchrom and the housing is plastic agreed, but no where near flexible cheap McDonalds Plastic produced in the PCB stuff. You gotta agree. Why Elinchrom? The modifiers, consistent kelvin, true watt seconds, and Swedish build quality. They have the same or better Customer service. It's a bargain I know, kinda like buying a Samyang for your 1Ds Mark III. I think to many people watched that One Light workshop? I don't know. you had color shifting with the einsteins still? which elichroms did you end up with?

Those last two made a huge impact on me. It sounds like you jumped on a bandwagon, didn't like it, and are now upset that you didn't do your research first. The issues that you mentioned are pretty well documented on this forum and others (especially the last two that bothered you the most...). I'm off lining my cage with newspaper.

As in, can you upgrade a B800 or B1600 to a Einstein? No...entirely new line. Been asked by others before in the ab forum..

It's cheap, and will keep you going until the next revision... cheers, juice (Canon shooter, Elinchrom lighter, but pretty much agnostic on brands.)

Thats just plain ridiculously one sided, it was very technical relevant to the topic. Who's surprised? It really has become PCB Forum mkII. Give it a week, and the banned list will encompass anyone who doesn't bow and worship the great PCB. cheers, juice (Canon shooter, Elinchrom lighter, but pretty much agnostic on brands.)
