Well seems alien bees is not continuing with the international market. So if you require 240 power then we are out of luck.

I saw these units on trademe (ebay type of site) went around had a look and bit of a play. The guy who is selling them I have delt with before. So for $1080 NZD I got the following

3 x Qihe QH-DGS150 flash units 75watt modeling lamp 1:1 - 1:8 setting
1 x Large Stand
1 x 60x60 softbox
1 x Snoot
1 x Remote transmiter

Selling my 2 x 550ex speedlights to help pay for it.

Just a quick shot taken last night. My other stands and umbrellas worked so no need to buy more. A bigger softbox may come later something reclangle 60x120.

Has any one heard of this brand. He gave me a yr warrenty on the units so Im happy.

I've never heard of this, but it'd be nice to see a shot taken with the lights of an actual subject. have you done any shots using the snoot?

Im finding them good. They do the job and I guess Its more me learning than the lights performing.

I would buy again. I would have like alien bees but a bit to much to bring in o New Zealand, and they have since stoped exporting.

So 2 years has gone by since you last posted about the Qihe. (At least in this thread)
Did/do they work ok?
Cant seem to find much info about them on the net, but thats probably just me.

Regards
Bjorn.
