Tim,
The designator on the remote adapter OM sensor for the Sunpak potato
masher type flash is RS OT-1D and the designator for the shoe type
Sunpak flash is as you said OT-1D. The RS OT-1D is much larger, more
features, uses internal battery, and terminates at the end of a coiled
cord in a 4 or 5 pin plug.
