The clamps can be separated at which point you will have two PERFECT battery holders. This is the CLD-35:  Tetrode, I just got this from Adorama but the two clamps are mated together with two rivets. How did you manage to separate them? 5D Mark III, 6D, EOS-M 22mm f/2 | 24-70mm f/2.8L II | 50mm f1.4 | 100L | 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II | Rokinon 8mm Fisheye

Jan 10, 2014 11:16 | #3589 This is probably a dumb question (won't be my first) since the CL-Rx depends on the CL-xxx for power. Anyway, would there be any possibility of using a CL-Rx to trigger a Nikon speedlight?

That would preclude it being used as a simple fire trigger. David | Sharing my Insights, Knowledge & Experience

I hope you will too  Here you can see the flash at near, middle, and far distances (the clamp on the end of the rod is there to prevent me from carelessly sliding the 360 off into space):    The first thing I found interesting was that the Rimelite Grand Box does seem to be almost parabolic (in the mathematical sense) as meter readings jumped by a full stop when the flash was moved to what is apparently the focus of the modifier. The best meter reading was produced when the base of the flashtube was 13" from the apex of the modifier. The second thing that surprised me was how much light was coming out of the 71" modifier when using just a single CL-360. At 8' from the front edge of the Rimelite and the meter at ISO 200 with the CL-360 at full power: Base of the flashtube at 10": f/32 Base of the flashtube at 13": f/45 Base of the flashtube at 16": f/32.2 Base of the flashtube at 23": f/16.9 This, of course, tells us nothing about how the light falling on a subject varies as the flash is moved in or out of the modifier. However, it does provide convincing evidence that the 360 (whether CL or AD or other) has no trouble at all filling a large parabolic modifier with adequate amounts of illumination for most situations. For those of us who aren't Leo, a Rimelite Grand Box with an indirect mounted strobe (or strobe head) is probably as close to a Bron Para as we're ever going to get.
