I have 2 430EX's, 1 transmitter, and 2 receivers. Works fine. Make sure you get the V2s version for the Canon flash units. The links I provided are the proper ones. Tim

Downside is the ebay triggers aren't reliable. They're fine for learning though, just don't expect to use them for anything serious.
