I have two Norman 200B's with a lot of extras. This is a kit that I assembled as a location portrait kit and it worked great for that purpose. It worked super on location and I used it parks for portraits in nature. You don't need electric to run these nice battery operted flashes. I think that you will find that this is probably the most complete 200B kit that you could find without going out and hunting down all the pieces. The photos should show you what I have, but I will list it for you:
2-200B units with new Dasaga lead acid batteries and head with standard reflectors and cube chargers for each.
2-Modeling light heads with new lights and 10ft AC cords
1-Modeling light snoot
1-Diffusion head
2- Swivel attachment to connect the heads to a light stand...these handle an umbrella
1-Photogenic Eclipse 60 in. white umbrella with a black cover that can be removed so it can be used as a shoot-through.
1-Photogenic Eclipse 45in. silver umbrella same as above.
2- sync cords, one is a Paramount and a 10ft extension cord for the sync cord
1-Wein Micro slave
1-bracket for a soft box
I tested all the lights today and at full power with the umbrellas at about 4ft I was getting about f:16 @EI100 with my Sekonic L-508 in incident corded flash mode. The flashes recycled very quickly <2sec and both cords, extension and Wein slave worked as they should.
I suspect that these batteries will give between 75 and 100+ full power flashes, but I can't guarantee that.
These 200B's are known to be real workhorses and were a standard for many location photographers. I think that they will give you many years of good service and can actually be serviced by Dasaga
I would like to get $450 + shipping for this fine kit. I know what I had to pay for all of this and the time it took to assemble all the pieces...Hell the batteries alone were over $170 and I think that it is a good price. If you think that I am way out of line, make me an offer and I will consider it.
At this time I would not like to split this up but may consider that in the future.
When I went to digital I picked up a Vello Freewave Fusion Basic kit with an extra receiver and all cords to connect the two flash units to a Nikon digital camera. I believe that I also have the cords for Canon and enough different cords to connect to other flash units. I can add this Vello kit to the above 200B kit for an additional $50.
