Hi,

Will there be an issue if I plug a 220v 50hz version of let's say an AB or Einstein to a 220v 60hz AC mains ? Anyone experience any malfunctions over time?

Thanks.

Either will work. You may notice a slight difference in recycle time. Or you may not :0) Otherwise, all else is the same.

As TS said, there will normally be about a 15% increase in recycle time when using a 60HZ flash unit on 50HZ power, Shouldn't be any other problems.
