Tim and anyone else who might be able to help,
I have been keeping an eye out for a AC flash adapter for a number
of months but I either miss the opportunity or the price is too high for
my pocket. But I have noticed that the output from this is the same
220vac as you mentioned here. Is it feasible to get a simple step-up
transformer (i.e.. a Euro power adapter for US appliances) and wire it
to the necessary pins of the T series flashes, or is there more to the
diet than that. If it is as simple as that a AC flash adapter could
probably be put together for less than $20.
Now if someone out there wants to part with a Oly AC flash adapter
in that price range I'm interested.
