Alienbees and Cactus v2 Triggers

Can someone help me out here im pretty confused,

I am getting 2 AB800's soon and when they arrive I wanna know I have what I need to trigger them.

Can I use the Cactus v2 triggers with them?
If I was using one I know I would have to connect one AB800 to my transmitter with a synch cord but how would I trigger both of them?

If I am unable to trigger them both with cactus triggers how else can I trigger them without using pocketwizards or any other expensive products.

thanks guys!

Yes, you can use the V2 with it's sync cord on one B800, the other B800 will be triggered by it's build in optical slave sensor.

Why not buy CyberSync from Paul Buff.. Much cheaper than PWs. He has a battery powered Rx coming out end of this month.

And these new versions (CyberSync) are supposed to be quite reliable.

Not to mention Paul takes care of his customers...

I can fire my AB800s very reliable using the built in slaves, indoors. If you are shooting indoors, why the need for a trigger?
