I came across this today. Does anybody here have any experience of them, good or bad?

So, am I to understand that nobody here has used these devices?

They look pretty neat to me.

I haven't used these but I've made similar items from cornflake packets and gaffer tape which, while not as pretty or professional looking, seem to do the job just fine.

Thanks Hefty. £80+ does seem a lot of money for a few pices of bent plastic. Neat idea though and they seem to have been well received by some pro's.

I do think they might be a bit more durable than cornflakes packets though.

To be fair, if I was a pro then I'd probably stump up the 80 quid just to avoid customers giving my kit funny looks. As I'm an amateur though, and I only really use flash around my own house, I'm happy to save the money - if they fall apart I can always make more...
