Post subject: | Sharing power between 2 Vag Mini's ??? |
Hi all, I just got my 2 Vag Minis in recently. I primarily shoot outside (full sun) with my WL x3200s. Those are my go to lights in such conditions because they offer a great pop that matches the sun. The recycle time from the Vag Mini is quite lengthy when shooting with the WL x3200 (btw 7-9 seconds). I am wondering if there is a way of using some kind of 3rd party adapter that i could plug the x3200 into both Vag Minis to allow the packs to half the load and recycle quicker? ANY IDEAS? Thanks all |

No. The AC cycles would not be synchronized between the two Vagabonds. If the cycles are counter to each other, bad things can/will happen to your equipment. The only way to increase the recycle times would be to use a higher wattage single power source. |
