flash bulbs are a godsend to people who take pictures in caves. the
gear is mucho lighter and no high voltage batteries are required. Also,
I think I recall them lighting off some of the bulbs *underwater*!
I have an original "handle mount" type flash unit that takes the light
bulb type flash bulbs for sale for 30$. I think it's Heiland brand.
I also have quite a few dozen M3's and M2's (and a couple Press 25's),
with 3 shoe mount holders for sale for 50$. the shoe mount units are
"tilt-o-mite" or some such brand. (I don't have them with me to check).
Shipping is extra on the above items.
Be seeing you.
