The rp guys have some YouTube videos showing you how to apply your velcro. They are also coming out with a non-velcro, shoe-mount system for the receiver, but it has been delayed for a while now.

It seems that they have been delayed for quite some time for the JrX too, a shoemount solution would be most nice... Clarence

I watched the videos a few mins ago and was very turned off by the idea of velcroing these on my flash and positioning that little foam circle over some other tiny dot...ugh..seems fussy. Gear

Still miles better than the P1 system. Now THAT was cumbersome! Clarence

I tried asking the people at Radiopopper.com but they were quite insistent that it uses 1.5V alkalines. Clarence
