Have been using eneloops in my k200d ,highly recommended. was in my local Asda (Blackburn)this afternoon and noticed they were on sale there. (though probably cheaper on the internet.)

Was taking a few pics of a lens im putting on fleabay with my two af200t flashes. came to pack away grabbed hold of one of them and it was red hot! let it cooldown put some fresh batterys in, capacitor starts to charge but no red test lamp. i dont suppose its worth repairing ?

Lovely set, glad to see the beached 'riverdance' is long gone.

Algi, had a look on the internet (strobist.com) and found a solution .the nikon transmitter has a green 'wake up'light ,when the shutter is pressed half way this wakes up the nikon flash .this is what causes problems when used on the pentax, (intermittent firing and second flash after 5 seconds when the wake up signal stops)the solution was to open up the transmitter and cut the wake up wire (thankfully there is a picture of the circuit board and which wire to cut !)took me about 5 mins ,have just had a quick try and everything seems to be working fine.(will test it out properly over the weekend) there are some very clever people out there! just need another 200t and a slave trigger now.thanks for your input,
regards,tim.

Algi, have just found out that the set i have is for a nikon d90, d5000 !, is your set pentax specific ? if it is i will have to put it back on fleabay , the quality of the kit is much better than expected .
regards, tim.
