SO.... had a little hicup at startup, seems some of the terminals lamp and control box connectors were a little smoo'd up so fan, focus and ir/vis wasn't working but a little wiggling and everything sorted itself out. Now that i know PSU and lamp system are functional i can plan some more exciting shoots. :D

-Happy Flashing y'all!!

P.S. Special TY to BVH for all his help and support during this endeavor! Much appreciated my friend!

Great to see it up and running!
Your test conditions reminds me of how it's usually here when I test lights, cold and snow. Good thing you can warm your hands in the beam, and get a tan too :cool:
Btw, if you need a picture host, Imgur is pretty good. i've been using since 2015, and never had any issues.

Way to go Fritz! Now to get the cable fixed and you'll be all set to draw the crowds! And make use of some of those extra lamps you have.
