I was wondering whether the current AB lighting modifiers, such as Octabox, Stripbox, barndoors and beauty dishes will work with Einstein.Will Einstein work with current 7" reflector and its girds?

Thank you.

Yes, all AB/WL/Zeus accessories are fully compatible with Einstein.

Thanks Paul,

Just one (or possibly two) further questions.......'

With the increase in size, will the Einstein fit in the CB1 Travel-bag, and if so, will (are) these bags be available from your Australian distributor (they do not show on the Australian web-site) ?

Thanks,

AB.

The Einstein will fit the CB1, however, the 8.5" reflector will just barely fit. We will have bags to fit each of our lights. I dont know all of the ins and outs with Austrailia, but, Colin should be able to get anything we carry.

Thanks TS...So, Yes, the Einstein with the 8.5" reflector is a tight fit, but it does fit in the CB1 ?

I'll send your Australian dude an email about availability, but typically Downunder, if something isn't a stock item, it's a 10-12 week wait......

Not necessarily PCB stuff, just stuff generally, like if you're needing a part for a repair or something....

It is a very tight fit. If the reflector goes over the light's shipping cover inverted, and the shipping cover goes all the way through the reflector, there is not much of a place to grab to pull it out, making it very difficult to remove.
